Memcached is a caching system, which has been gaining in popularity in recent years owing to its efficiency. It’s used to cache calls and responses between a database and the app that is using it, which can accelerate the overall performance of your website and decrease the generated server load considerably. Every time a web page on an app-powered Internet site is accessed, the app connects to the database and "asks" what information should be displayed, and then extracts it. With Memcached, these procedures are omitted, as the platform has already cached all of the content that should appear on a given web page. When any content is changed, the Memcached content is updated too, so the visitors will never see old data. The Memcached platform is an excellent choice for every website that has lots of viewers, since it will make it faster than the speed of sound and will enhance the overall user experience.
Memcached in Shared Website Hosting
When you host script-powered websites in a shared website hosting account with us, you can add the Memcached memory caching system to your web hosting plan with just a few clicks from your Hepsia hosting Control Panel. The upgrade will be available momentarily and, since the necessary extension is already installed on our avant-garde cloud web hosting platform, you can start using it straight away. To give you more flexibility, we offer two separate upgrades related to the number of instances (i.e. how many sites will use Memcached) and to the memory that the Memcached caching system will use. The latter is available in increments of 16 megabytes and you can add memory whenever you want. Naturally, the more memory the Memcached caching system is allowed to use, the more content it will cache, so if you own a resource-demanding website with a lot of data, you may require more memory to be able to take advantage of the power that Memcached can give you.
Memcached in Semi-dedicated Hosting
You can add the Memcached data caching platform to any of the Linux semi-dedicated services offered by us and use its full potential for any script-powered website hosted on our servers. The upgrade is available through the Hepsia Control Panel and you can select two things – the number of instances and the system memory. These things define the number of the sites that can use the Memcached caching platform and how much memory it will use to store your data. You can select them separately, since a given instance is not linked to a fixed amount of system memory, so you can use a lot of memory for one large-size site, for example. This upgrade is offered in increments of 16 MB and you can order as much memory as you want. The Memcached platform can be used with any script-driven website irrespective of its nature, including those based on widely used web-based applications like Joomla™, WordPress or Drupal™, and many companies like Zynga and Wikipedia are already using it to accelerate the loading speed of their sites.
Memcached in VPS Web Hosting
Memcached is offered by default with every virtual private server offered by us if you choose Hepsia as your hosting Control Panel, so you will not need to pay any extra cash to be able to take advantage of the full capacity of this object caching system. The more powerful VPS plan you select, the more memory Memcached will have for information storage purposes, but you will have no less than 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 permit you to use the Memcached caching system for numerous sites, no matter how large they are, which in turn means that you can use a less powerful plan for them without overloading your VPS. The caching system is ideal for script-driven software applications such as Joomla™, OpenCart, WordPress or Mambo, and you can utilize it even with a custom-made app. Soon after you activate the Memcached caching system, it will start storing content and you will observe the enhanced performance of your websites.
Memcached in Dedicated Servers Hosting
You can make use of the full potential of Memcached with each and every dedicated server that we are offering if you pick Hepsia as your Control Panel. A special section in it is dedicated to the caching system and you can begin using Memcached for any Internet site hosted on the dedicated server with only several clicks of the mouse. You can improve the performance of any site, regardless of what script-powered application you rely on or how heavy the Internet site is, since the minimum amount of memory that Memcached will be able to use is 3 GB and this amount rises seriously with the more powerful servers. Soon after the caching system is activated, it will begin caching information each time somebody opens your website, so, as soon as sufficient content has been stored, you will perceive the reduced load and the optimized performance of the site. The Memcached caching system is being used by plenty of websites, including popular portals like Wikipedia, Reddit and Zynga, which proves the effectiveness of the Memcached caching system.
