A web accelerator is a server-side program that quickens a website. Such a piece of software may operate in different ways depending on the site content, but in the typical situation all such applications cache content and deliver it instead of the web server. That's valid for both static and dynamic sites because the cached content could be simple text or database responses and the reward of employing a web accelerator isn't just the faster loading website, but also the reduced overall load on the web server. This way, you may employ a lower-end hosting package that'll also cost less while your site visitors can still enjoy superior browsing speeds. Few companies provide web accelerators with their hosting deals and they frequently offer just 1, while we offer 3 different ones that will permit you to improve the performance of any type of website noticeably.

Web Accelerators in Shared Hosting

In case you buy one of our shared hosting plans, you will have 3 widely used web accelerators at your disposal and you will be able to access them directly using the Hepsia CP that is included with our plans. Varnish is one of the most widely used ones and it could tremendously increase the speed of any website as it caches the pages which a visitor opens for the first time and delivers them each and every time that website visitor opens them again. Given that Varnish operates noticeably faster than any hosting server, the loading speed of any website using the accelerator shall raise considerably. Memcached is used to cache database and API calls and responses between a website visitor and a hosting server, so it is similar to Varnish, but is employed predominantly for database-driven sites. Because the site shall connect to its database significantly less, the overall hosting server load will be reduced significantly. The last accelerator, Node.js, is used for scalable online programs such as chats and booking websites as it processes information in real time the moment it is entered on the website by the users. Depending on the package you choose, these accelerators may be available or could be an optional upgrade.

Web Accelerators in Dedicated Web Hosting

In case you acquire a dedicated server from our firm and you opt for Hepsia as the hosting CP, you shall be able to use Node.js, Memcached and Varnish for your Internet sites. All solutions come with several gigabytes of memory dedicated to those accelerators and the actual amount depends on the package deal that you choose. Node.js is employed for scalable online apps such as browser games or hotel booking and it processes the data in real time as the client enters it, which makes it considerably quicker than similar platforms. Memcached caches database and API responses, so if you employ it for a script-driven Internet site, not only will the Internet site work faster, but also the load on the web server will decrease because there will be considerably less database queries to be processed. Varnish also caches content, but it's not at all limited to databases. Rather, it caches whole websites once a visitor opens them and provides them instead of the server each time the same visitor opens them afterwards. Because Varnish processes web requests considerably faster than any server, the overall performance of a site using this accelerator can increase around 300%.
