A web accelerator is a program that quickens an Internet site, normally by caching its content. There are various types of accelerators, but in the general case this sort of applications cache static content or database responses and provide them in place of the server, thus increasing the performance of a site considerably. The latter is achievable because accelerator programs work faster than a web server and not only will a website work better, but the server load shall also minimize, which will enable you to run heavy websites with less system resources. We offer 3 web accelerators with our hosting packages, which will allow you to accelerate any kind of Internet site. In comparison, most Internet hosting service providers do not offer any web accelerators or offer only 1, which limits your choice of web apps in the event that you would like to employ this type of software.

Web Accelerators in Cloud Website Hosting

When you host your Internet sites inside a cloud website hosting account from our firm, you'll have three popular web accelerators to select from if you'd like to boost the sites' functionality. Memcached is used for database-driven websites and it caches the calls and requests between an Internet site and its database, so it could decrease the load of such sites drastically. Varnish caches entire webpages the first time a website visitor opens them and provides them from there on if the same guest opens them again. It does that considerably faster than the hosting server, so it can easily boost the loading speed of any site nearly 300%. Node.js is an object-oriented platform for real-time applications which works on the hosting server and not within the visitor's world-wide web browser. It's employed for holiday accommodation booking, chats and other applications where a lot of data needs to be processed in real time. The availability of these accelerators depends on the hosting plan that you choose - they might come by default or as an upgrade. In both cases, you shall be able to add more instances or more memory for each of them.
