Memcached is a caching platform, which has been gaining popularity in recent years because of its efficiency. It is used to cache requests and responses between a database and the app that’s using it, which can boost the overall performance of your website and decrease the generated load considerably. Every time a web page on an app-driven website is visited, the app connects to the database and "asks" what info should be displayed, and then fetches it. With Memcached, these procedures are omitted, as the platform has already cached all of the content that should be displayed on a specific page. When any content is changed, the Memcached content is updated too, so the website visitors will never see old content. Memcached is an excellent solution for every Internet site that draws plenty of visitors, since it will make it extremely fast and will improve the overall user experience.

Memcached in Cloud Web Hosting

When you host script-powered sites in a cloud web hosting account with us, you will be able to add the Memcached content caching system to your web hosting plan with just a few mouse clicks through your Hepsia Control Panel. The upgrade will be available instantaneously and, since the necessary PHP extension is pre-installed on our innovative 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 sites will use Memcached) and to the amount of system memory that the Memcached caching system will use. The latter comes in increments of 16 MB and you can order as much memory as you need. Logically, the more memory the Memcached caching system is allowed to use, the more content it will cache, so in case you have a popular website with a lot of data, you may require more memory in order to be able to make full use of the power that Memcached can give you.

Memcached in Semi-dedicated Hosting

You can add Memcached to any of the Linux semi-dedicated packages that we are offering and make use of its full capacity for any script-powered Internet site hosted on our servers. The upgrade is accessible through the Hepsia hosting Control Panel and you can select two features – the instances and the memory. These things specify the number of the websites that can use the Memcached caching platform and how much system memory it will use to store your information. You can choose them independently, since a given instance is not linked to a particular amount of memory, so you can use a lot of memory for one resource-demanding Internet site, for instance. This feature comes in increments of 16 MB and you can get as much memory as you want. The Memcached platform can be used with any script-powered website regardless of its type, including those that are based on widespread applications like WordPress, Drupal™ or Joomla™, and plenty of companies like Zynga and Wikipedia are already using it to improve the overall performance of their websites.

Memcached in VPS Hosting

If you get a virtual private server from our company, you will be able to use Memcached at no extra cost, as the object caching platform comes with all virtual machines ordered with the Hepsia Control Panel. Even if you manage regularly visited sites, you will be able to enhance their overall performance without effort and the reduced load on the server will permit you to keep your current VPS hosting package rather than switching to a more powerful one. The amount of system memory that Memcached can use to store data depends on the package that you’re using, but even with a lower-end one, you will have no less than several hundred megabytes, which is significantly more than what you’d get with a shared web hosting package, so the website performance boost will be considerable. You can take advantage of Memcached with any database-powered web application, regardless of whether you have built it yourself or you are using a ready-made one such as Joomla™, WordPress or OpenCart.

Memcached in Dedicated Web Hosting

Each dedicated server that is ordered with our Hepsia hosting Control Panel comes with Memcached pre-installed by default, so you can begin using the distributed memory caching system as soon as your server is fully ready, without needing to activate or upgrade anything. The amount of system memory that Memcached can employ depends on the dedicated server that you’ve picked, but as our servers are exceptionally powerful and due to the fact that it is likely that you’ll host resource-requiring Internet sites on them, the minimum amount of memory that the caching system can use is 3 GB. This will allow you to increase the overall performance of very popular websites without any effort and you will detect the difference shortly after the Memcached caching system starts caching database queries. You can take full advantage of the system with any database-driven web page, including those that are based on popular CMSs like Joomla™ and WordPress.
