Memcached is a widely used distributed memory object caching system, which can boost the loading speed and the overall performance of your Internet sites substantially in case they use an API or a database. This is achieved by caching the calls to the API/database and the responses that are returned, so when a visitor conducts a search for a given product on your website, for instance, the database won’t have to be accessed to return the results and the whole operation will be executed considerably faster. That goes for all sorts of database-powered apps and not only for e-commerce portals, as every time a web page is opened, the application sends a database request to get the data that should be displayed. With Memcached, not only will your site open significantly faster, but it will also generate much less server load. If any data in the database is edited, the cached responses will also be ‘refreshed’, so the site visitors will not see any outdated info.

Memcached in Hosting

Memcached comes as an upgrade with each and every hosting account offered by our company and in case you want to use it for any script-based Internet site that you host on our leading-edge cloud platform, you will be able to enable it in a few simple steps through your Hepsia hosting Control Panel. In the meantime, you’ll get the option to upgrade two separate things – the instances and the system memory. The first one is related to the number of the sites that can use the Memcached caching system simultaneously, so if you need it for several sites, you can order a handful of instances. The second one refers to the total amount of memory that Memcached will be able to use to cache data, so for many sites (or for one large-size site), you should get more memory for better performance. The memory is offered in increments of 16 MB and more memory can be added at any moment. With the Memcached caching system, each script-driven site hosted on our servers will load extremely fast.

Memcached in Semi-dedicated Hosting

You can add the Memcached distributed memory caching platform to any of the semi-dedicated services offered by us and use its full capacity for any script-powered website hosted by us. The upgrade is offered through the Hepsia hosting Control Panel and you can choose two features – the instances and the memory. These things specify the number of the sites that can use the Memcached caching platform and the amount of memory that it will use to cache your info. You can choose them independently, since one instance is not bound to a fixed amount of memory, so you can use plenty of memory for one frequently visited Internet site, for example. This upgrade comes in increments of 16 MB and you can get as much memory as you want. The platform can be used with any script-powered website regardless of its type, including those that are based on popular web applications like Joomla™, WordPress or Drupal™, and lots of companies like Zynga and Wikipedia are already using it to increase the performance of their websites.

Memcached in VPS Web Hosting

You’ll get Memcached with any of the virtual private server packages that we’re offering in case you pick Hepsia as your hosting Control Panel and you’ll be able to activate the distributed memory object caching platform through the Control Panel section with the exact same name. The activation requires a couple of mouse clicks and you will notice the difference in the overall performance of your sites almost immediately. The amount of memory that Memcached can take advantage of to cache information depends on the given Virtual Private Server plan that you have selected, but in any case it will not be less than several hundred MB, which is more than enough even for several popular websites. You can use Memcached with websites driven by WordPress, Joomla™ or any other web app and lower the load on your VPS, which will permit you to keep using the current Virtual Private Server hosting package instead of moving to a more powerful one, as you simply won’t need it. Memcached is already being used by famous websites like Zynga, Wikipedia and Reddit, which verifies its efficiency.

Memcached in Dedicated Servers Hosting

Memcached is available for free with all Linux dedicated hosting services that we are offering and the only condition is that the server must be ordered with the Hepsia hosting Control Panel. You can use the distributed memory caching system for any database-powered Internet site, including those that are based on popular web apps – for example, a WordPress online blog or a Joomla™-powered social networking site. Each server comes with a certain amount of memory that the Memcached caching system can use, but the minimum you will get is 3 GB, which is sufficient enough to improve the speed of very heavy websites significantly, since this very memory will be dedicated to storing the cached information. The system will start caching content once it’s enabled, so soon thereafter, you’ll note the enhanced performance of your sites and the decreased load on the dedicated server. Numerous Internet sites use the Memcached caching system to increase their efficacy, including popular ones such as Wikipedia and Reddit.
