Memcached is a famous object caching system, which can improve the speed and the overall performance of your websites drastically 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 someone searches for some product on your website, for example, the database will not have to be accessed to display the results and the entire procedure will be performed considerably quicker. That goes for all sorts of database-driven applications and not only for online shopping portals, since anytime a specific page is accessed, the application sends a database request to get the content that should be displayed. With Memcached, not only will your website open significantly faster, but it will also create much less server load. If any content in the database is changed, the cached replies will also be updated, so the website visitors will not see any outdated info.
Memcached in Hosting
When you host script-powered websites in a hosting account with our company, you will be able to add the Memcached object caching system to your shared hosting package with just a few clicks of the mouse via your Hepsia hosting Control Panel. The upgrade will be available instantaneously and, since the PHP extension needed for it is pre-installed on our leading-edge cloud web hosting platform, you can start using it straight away. To give you more versatility, we offer two different upgrades related to the number of instances (i.e. how many websites will use Memcached) and to the amount of memory that the Memcached caching system will use. The latter is available in increments of 16 MB and you can order as much memory as you want. Naturally, the more memory Memcached is permitted to use, the more content it will cache, so if you have a resource-demanding site with a lot of content, you may require more memory so as to be able to take full advantage of the power that Memcached can give you.
Memcached in Semi-dedicated Hosting
You can add the Memcached memory caching platform to any of the Linux semi-dedicated hosting that we are offering and use its full potential for any script-driven Internet site hosted on our servers. The upgrade is accessible through the Hepsia Control Panel and you can select two things – the instances and the memory. These things indicate how many websites can use the Memcached caching platform and the amount of system memory that it will use to cache your data. You can choose them separately, since one instance is not bound to a particular amount of memory, so you can use a lot of memory for a single resource-demanding site, for instance. This feature is available in increments of 16 megabytes and you can get as much memory as you wish. The Memcached platform can be used with any script-driven site irrespective of its type, including those based on widespread Internet apps like Drupal™, Joomla™ or WordPress, and many companies like Wikipedia and Zynga are already using it to accelerate the overall performance of their websites.
Memcached in VPS Web Hosting
You will get Memcached with any of the virtual private server packages offered by us in case you pick Hepsia as your Control Panel and you’ll be able to activate the memory caching platform via the section with the same name. The configuration requires a couple of clicks and you will see the difference in the overall performance of your websites almost instantly. The amount of memory that the Memcached caching platform can employ to store info depends on the particular Virtual Private Server plan that you have picked, but in any case it will not be less than several hundred MB, which is quite enough even for multiple resource-heavy Internet sites. You can use the Memcached platform with sites based on Joomla™, WordPress or any other software application and lower the load on your server, which will allow you to keep using the current VPS package instead of switching to a more powerful one, since you will simply not need it. The Memcached platform is already being used by popular websites such as Reddit, Wikipedia and Zynga, which is an evidence of its efficiency.
Memcached in Dedicated Servers Hosting
You can take advantage of the full potential of Memcached with each and every dedicated server offered by us if you select Hepsia as your hosting Control Panel. A section in it is dedicated to the distributed memory object caching system and you can start using Memcached for any Internet site hosted on the machine with just several clicks of the mouse. You can improve the overall performance of any site, no matter what script-powered software application you’re using or how heavy the site is, since the minimum amount of system memory that Memcached will be able to employ is 3 gigabytes and this amount increases tremendously with the higher-end dedicated servers. Shortly after the caching system is activated, it will begin caching data anytime somebody opens your site, so, as soon as sufficient content has been cached, you’ll detect the decreased load on your dedicated server and the optimized performance of the website. The Memcached caching system is used by lots of websites, including popular portals like Reddit, Zynga and Wikipedia, which proves the effectiveness of the caching system.
