Memcached is a commonly used object caching platform, which can enhance the speed and the performance of your Internet sites greatly if they use a database or an API. This is achieved by caching the requests to the database/API and the replies that are returned, so when a client conducts a search for some product on your website, for instance, the database will not have to be accessed to display the results and the whole task will be completed considerably quicker. This goes for all sorts of database-driven apps and not only for online shopping portals, as every time a particular web page is visited, the application connects to its database to get the data that should be displayed. With Memcached, not only will your site load considerably faster, but it will also create much less server load. If any data in the database is modified, the cached responses will also be updated, so the website visitors won’t see any old information.

Memcached in Cloud Hosting

The Memcached memory caching system comes as an upgrade with every Linux cloud hosting service that we are offering and you will be able to begin using it as soon as you add it, since the extension that it needs in order to run correctly is already available on our advanced cloud platform. You can request the upgrade from the Hepsia Control Panel, which comes with every plan and a brand new section where you can manage Memcached will show up. The upgrade is separated into two parts – the instances and the amount of memory, so as to offer you more freedom. The first one shows the number of the websites which can use the Memcached caching system, whereas the second one, which is available in increments of 16 MB, defines the total size of the content that the system can cache. A regularly visited website with a very large database may require more memory to take an even bigger advantage of Memcached, so in case you’d like to upgrade this feature, you’ll be able to do it at any given point with several clicks of the mouse.

Memcached in Semi-dedicated Hosting

When you order any of our semi-dedicated server plans, you’ll find Memcached as an optional feature in the Upgrades section of your Hepsia Control Panel, so if you want to use it for any of the Internet sites hosted in the account, you can enable it with only a couple of clicks of the mouse. The memory caching platform is perfect for any script-driven app like WordPress, Joomla™, or even an in-house built one, and depending on your necessities, you’ll be able to choose two different features – how many sites will use the Memcached platform, in other words – the number of instances; and how much info will be stored, in other words – the amount of memory that the platform will employ. The two features are not tied to each other, so if you’ve got a traffic-intensive Internet site with lots of content, you can order one instance and a larger amount of system memory. Memcached will accelerate the overall performance of your websites soon after you activate it and both you and your website visitors will enjoy much faster load speeds.

Memcached in VPS Hosting

Memcached is included by default with each virtual private server that we are offering as long as you choose Hepsia as your Control Panel, so you won’t have to pay any extra money to be able to make the most of the potential of this content caching system. The more powerful Virtual Private Server package you choose, the more system memory Memcached will have for content caching purposes, but you’ll have at least several hundred megabytes all the time, which is much more than the amount of memory you’d get with a shared hosting plan. This will enable you to use the Memcached caching system for a lot of websites, regardless of how popular they are, which in turn means that you can use a lower-end package for them without overloading your virtual server. The Memcached caching system is excellent for script-driven web applications such as Joomla™, OpenCart, WordPress or Mambo, and you can utilize it even with a custom-built app. Shortly after you activate Memcached, it will start storing data and you will observe the enhanced performance of your sites.

Memcached in Dedicated Web Hosting

If you obtain one of our dedicated hosting services and if you choose Hepsia as your hosting Control Panel during the signup procedure, you will get the Memcached platform as standard and you can set it up for any site that you host on the dedicated machine without installing or upgrading anything. It will begin caching information as users visit your website, so you’ll detect the result of using it shortly thereafter. The minimum amount of memory that will be available to the caching platform is 3 gigabytes and normally, the more powerful the plan, the more memory Memcached will have at its disposal. This amount will permit you to use the platform for a large number of Internet sites or for an extremely heavy site without weakening its effectiveness. The Memcached caching platform will enable you to enhance the load speed of any database-driven website in no time – a Joomla™ portal, a WordPress personal weblog, an OpenCart e-store, etcetera, and to improve the overall performance of your dedicated server.
