Memcached is a famous object caching platform, which can enhance the loading speed and the performance of your sites tremendously if they use a database or an API. This is accomplished by caching the requests to the database/API and the replies that are returned, so if a customer searches for a particular product on your Internet site, for example, the database will not have to be accessed to display the results and the whole operation will be executed noticeably quicker. That goes for all sorts of database-powered apps and not only for online stores, as every time a specific web page is visited, the application connects to its database to get the data that should be displayed. With Memcached, not only will your website open noticeably faster, but it will also produce much less server load. If any content in the database is updated, the cached replies will also be ‘refreshed’, so the site visitors will not see any outdated info.

Memcached in Cloud Hosting

Memcached comes as an optional upgrade with each cloud hosting package that we are offering and if you wish to use it for any script-powered website that you host on our cutting-edge cloud web hosting platform, you will be able to order it in a few easy steps through your Hepsia hosting Control Panel. In the meantime, you’ll be given the option to upgrade two separate features – the instances and the system memory. The first one has to do with the number of the Internet sites that can use the Memcached data caching system simultaneously, so if you need it for several sites, you can get a number of instances. The second one has to do with the maximum amount of memory that Memcached will be allowed to use in order to cache info, so for numerous websites (or for one single large-sized site), you’d better order more memory for improved performance. The memory is offered in increments of 16 MB and more memory can be ordered at any moment. With the Memcached caching system, every script-based website hosted on our servers will load faster than the speed of light.

Memcached in Semi-dedicated Hosting

If you choose to host your sites in a semi-dedicated server account, you’ll be able to take advantage of Memcached with ease, as the data caching platform’s activation takes a couple of clicks from the Hepsia Control Panel. The extension that it requires is pre-installed on our semi-dedicated servers, so you can start using the Memcached caching platform as soon as you add it to your semi-dedicated server account. You will be able to choose how many websites can use it and how much content it will cache, i.e. there are two different upgradable features – the instances and the memory. You can add more of both, so if one of your websites becomes extremely busy, for instance, you can always get more memory. Our system is really flexible in this regard and we do not bind a given number of instances to a pre-defined amount of system memory. You can employ the Memcached caching platform to accelerate any script-powered website, including those based on widely used software apps, such as Joomla™ or WordPress.

Memcached in VPS

Memcached comes by default with every virtual private server that we are offering on the condition that you select Hepsia as your hosting Control Panel, so you won’t have to pay any extra money to be able to take advantage of the full potential of this distributed memory object caching system. The more powerful plan you choose, the more memory Memcached will have for information storage purposes, but you will have at least several hundred MB at all times, which is much more than what you’d get with a shared web hosting package. This will permit you to use the Memcached system for many sites, regardless of how heavy they are, which in turn goes to say that you can use a low-end package for them without overloading your virtual server. The Memcached caching system is excellent for script-driven software applications like Joomla™, WordPress, OpenCart or Mambo, and you can use it even with a custom-created app. Soon after you activate the Memcached caching system, it will start storing content and you’ll notice the enhanced overall performance of your websites.

Memcached in Dedicated Hosting

Any dedicated server that’s ordered with our Hepsia Control Panel comes with Memcached pre-installed by default, so you can start using this memory caching system once your dedicated server is configured, without the need to install or upgrade anything. The amount of memory that Memcached can employ depends on the very server that you’ve picked, but as our servers are quite powerful and considering the fact that it’s likely that you will host resource-demanding sites on them, the minimum amount of memory that the caching system can use will be three gigabytes. This will permit you to accelerate the overall performance of very busy websites with ease and you’ll notice the difference shortly after Memcached starts caching database calls. You can take full advantage of the system with any database-powered website, including those that are based on famous CMSs such as WordPress and Joomla™.
