Web Accelerators
Just what do web accelerators do? What can you do to increase your site's loading speed?
A web accelerator is an application which accelerates a website, usually by caching its content. There are different sorts of accelerators, but in the general case such programs cache static content or database responses and supply them instead of the hosting server, thus boosting the performance of a website noticeably. The latter is achievable because accelerator apps work faster than a server and not only will a website function better, but the server load will also decline, which will permit you to run heavy websites with less system resources. We provide three web accelerators with our hosting solutions, which will allow you to increase the speed of any type of Internet site. In comparison, most Internet hosting service providers don't provide any web accelerators or offer only 1, which limits your choice of web apps in case you want to use this type of software.

Web Accelerators in Cloud Website Hosting
When you purchase one of our cloud website hosting packages, you'll have 3 popular web accelerators at your disposal and you will be able to access them directly via the Hepsia CP which is included with our plans. Varnish is one of the most widely used ones and it could considerably accelerate any website since it caches the pages which a site visitor opens for the first time and delivers them each time that website visitor opens them again. Because Varnish functions way quicker than any server, the loading speed of any site using the accelerator shall increase substantially. Memcached is used to cache database and API calls and responses between a visitor and a web server, so it's similar to Varnish, but is used largely for database-driven Internet sites. Since the website will connect to its database significantly less, the overall web server load shall be decreased considerably. The 3rd accelerator, Node.js, is used for scalable online applications like chats and booking websites since it processes data in real time as soon as it is entered on the site by the users. Depending on the plan you choose, these accelerators might be available or could be an optional upgrade.
- Web Accelerators in Semi-dedicated Hosting
You shall be able to use Memcached, Varnish or Node.js for the websites hosted within your semi-dedicated hosting account based on the nature of the website content. Memcached, in particular, caches database requests, so it is a superb choice for any script program like WordPress or Joomla™. This way, the database hosting server shall not need to process exactly the same request if many users open a site with the same content. Varnish is comparable, but it is a general-purpose accelerator since it caches any kind of content the first time a guest opens a page. If that webpage is opened again by the exact same visitor, it shall be provided by Varnish at a much higher speed compared to the server. Using this web accelerator shall minimize the load produced by your websites tremendously. Last, but not least, Node.js will permit you to produce scalable web apps such as hotel booking websites or chats. Its advantage over comparable platforms is that it does not wait for a customer to submit a large piece of data, but processes whatever the client is typing in real-time. The 3 web accelerators are available within the Hepsia CP and you will be able to pick how many instances of each one of them will run and the maximum amount of memory they'll use.- Web Accelerators in VPS Hosting
If you choose your virtual private server to be integrated with the Hepsia Control Panel, you will be able to use Varnish, Memcached and Node.js - 3 of the most popular web accelerators. Varnish caches webpages the first time they are visited and delivers them whenever the same person visits them again, which will accelerate any kind of Internet site several times. Memcached is employed for dynamic script programs like Joomla™ and WordPress because it caches database requests and responses, thus the database hosting server shall not need to process the very same page each and every time guests open it if the same content should be displayed. Node.js is a platform for creating real-time apps for example online games and chats. It functions considerably faster than similar platforms as it processes the information in little bits all the time and does not wait for users to submit a substantial piece of data that shall require more time to be processed. The three web accelerators are available with all Hepsia-based VPS plans and feature several hundred MBs of dedicated memory.- Web Accelerators in Dedicated Web Hosting
Memcached, Node.js and Varnish are offered by default with all our dedicated servers that are ordered with Hepsia as the website hosting Control Panel. These three web accelerators include several gbs of dedicated memory and you can use them to speed up any kind of Internet site. Memcached can significantly lessen the load on the web server if you have script-driven sites because it caches database responses, therefore it minimizes the amount of database queries that the web server has to deal with. Node.js shall enable you to create scalable apps with real-time user-server interaction including chats or dining booking sites. Its advantage over comparable platforms is that it processes information the moment the end user enters it, so all the information is taken care of faster and in small portions. Varnish caches whole Internet pages the first time a visitor opens them and provides them every time the same website visitor opens them again, that makes it a universal accelerator for any kind of Internet sites. Since it works faster than any hosting server, it can speed up an Internet site at least several times and because of this, Varnish is one of the most widely used web accelerators out there. - Web Accelerators in Semi-dedicated Hosting
