Web Accelerators
Learn what exactly web accelerators are and exactly how you can take advantage of them to improve your site’s efficiency.
A web accelerator is an application which quickens a site, usually by caching its content. There are many kinds of accelerators, but in the general case this sort of apps cache static content or database responses and deliver them instead of the web server, hence improving the performance of a site considerably. The latter is achievable because accelerator apps work faster than a hosting server and not only will a website work better, but the server load will also decrease, which will permit you to run heavy websites with less resources. We provide 3 web accelerators with our hosting plans, which will allow you to increase the speed of any type of site. In comparison, most hosting providers do not provide any web accelerators or offer only one, which limits your choice of web apps in case you want to employ this type of software.

Web Accelerators in Cloud Hosting
When you buy one of our cloud hosting packages, you'll have 3 popular web accelerators at your disposal and you'll be able to access them directly through the Hepsia CP that is included with our packages. Varnish is one of the most popular ones and it can considerably accelerate any site as it caches the pages a visitor opens for the first time and provides them every time that guest opens them again. Given that Varnish functions noticeably faster than any server, the loading speed of any website using the accelerator shall raise noticeably. Memcached is employed to cache database and API calls and responses between a site visitor and a hosting server, so it's comparable to Varnish, but is employed largely for database-driven websites. Since the Internet site shall connect to its database way less, the overall hosting server load shall be decreased considerably. The 3rd accelerator, Node.js, is employed for scalable online apps such as chats and booking sites since it processes information in real time the instant it is entered on the webpage by the users. Dependant upon the package you select, these accelerators may be available or might be an optional upgrade.
- Web Accelerators in Semi-dedicated Servers
The Hepsia Control Panel that comes with our semi-dedicated server solutions shall enable you to use Memcached, Varnish and Node.js for your websites. Memcached is among the most well known accelerators because it can easily accelerate any API or database-driven Internet site by caching requests and responses, consequently the hosting server will not need to process identical requests time after time. The platform is ideal for Internet sites designed with programs such as Joomla™, Mambo or WordPress. Varnish is a highly effective accelerator which caches any type of content and is also known as an HTTP reverse proxy. It caches web pages that are opened by a visitor for the first time and provides them each and every time that very same site visitor opens them again. Varnish can certainly accelerate an Internet site several times since it delivers content faster than any hosting server. Node.js is a platform employed for scalable real-time programs like chats, Internet browser games or social networks. It processes info in small pieces the moment a user enters anything, so it works faster than similar platforms in which users submit massive chunks of information which need time to be processed. You could choose the number of instances and the dedicated memory for each of the 3 accelerators via your CP.- Web Accelerators in VPS Servers
We provide Memcached, Node.js and Varnish with all VPS servers that are obtained with the Hepsia CP. Your server shall also include several hundred MBs of dedicated memory for these accelerators and the exact amount would be determined by the package deal that you choose. Memcached is employed for script-driven Internet sites because it caches database responses, consequently decreasing the number of queries which a script sends to its database. It can be employed for any script including WordPress or Joomla™. Node.js is a powerful platform for building web apps for example booking sites and chats. The real-time interaction between end users and a hosting server is done by processing small parts of info as soon any user inputs anything on the site. In comparison, other platforms wait for users to input a considerable amount of data before they process it, consequently they function slower. Varnish is a multi-purpose accelerator that caches entire pages and delivers them instead of the hosting server at a considerably faster rate. It is also referred to as an HTTP reverse proxy and it can effortlessly speed up any sort of website.- Web Accelerators in Dedicated Servers
In case you select Hepsia as the hosting Control Panel for your new dedicated server, you will have Memcached, Varnish and Node.js at your disposal for increasing the speed of your websites. Memcached can easily reduce the load on the web server by lowering the queries your script-driven sites make since it caches database responses. This web accelerator is good for dynamic Internet sites designed with WordPress, Joomla™ and similar scripts. Varnish, which is often called an HTTP reverse proxy, caches entire websites the first time a new visitor opens them. It may be used to accelerate any kind of website because it delivers the cached content considerably faster than the web server every time a customer opens the same site again. You'll be able to employ Node.js for online applications which require real-time server-client interaction like online chats or booking websites. Different from other platforms which wait for the user to input everything on a form, Node.js processes the info piece by piece as the user fills every box, so it operates much faster and more effectively. All dedicated server packages include several gigabytes of memory dedicated to these 3 web accelerators. - Web Accelerators in Semi-dedicated Servers
