Memcached is a distributed memory object caching platform, which has been gaining in popularity lately due to its efficiency. It’s used to cache queries and responses between a database and the app that is using it, which can enhance the performance of your website and lessen the created server load drastically. Every time a webpage on an application-driven site is visited, the application connects to the database and "asks" what info should be shown, and then extracts it. With Memcached, these procedures are omitted, since the platform has already cached all the content that should be displayed on a certain web page. In case any content is edited, the Memcached content is updated too, so the website visitors will never see old content. The Memcached platform is an excellent choice for every Internet site that entices numerous visitors, since it will make it truly fast and will enhance the user experience.

Memcached in Web Hosting

When you host script-driven sites in a web hosting account with our company, you’ll be able to add the Memcached data caching system to your plan with only a couple of clicks of the mouse through your Hepsia Control Panel. The upgrade will be available instantly and, since the necessary extension is already installed on our cutting-edge cloud hosting platform, you can begin using it right away. To give you more flexibility, we offer two different upgrades related to the number of instances (i.e. how many Internet sites will use Memcached) and to the amount of system memory that Memcached will use. The latter is available in increments of 16 MB and you can add memory whenever you like. Logically, the more memory the Memcached caching system is permitted to use, the more data it will cache, so if you’ve got a resource-hungry site with lots of content, you may need more memory to be able to take advantage of the power that Memcached can give you.

Memcached in Semi-dedicated Servers

You can add Memcached to any of the semi-dedicated hosting service that we offer and make use of its full potential for any script-driven website hosted on our servers. The upgrade is accessible through the Hepsia Control Panel and you can select two features – the number of instances and the amount of memory. These things show how many sites can use the Memcached platform and the amount of system memory that it will use to cache your information. You can select them independently, since one instance is not tied to a fixed amount of system memory, so you can use a lot of memory for a single resource-consuming site, for instance. This feature is offered in increments of 16 MB and you can get as much memory as you like. The platform can be used with any script-powered website regardless of its type, including those based on widespread Internet apps like WordPress, Joomla™ or Drupal™, and plenty of companies like Wikipedia and Zynga are already using it to optimize the loading speed of their websites.

Memcached in VPS Servers

When you order a VPS server from us, you’ll be able to use Memcached at no extra charge, as the distributed memory object caching platform is offered with all VPSs ordered with the Hepsia Control Panel. Even if you own heavy websites, you will be able to improve their overall performance without efforts and the reduced load on your Virtual Private Server will allow you to keep using your current Virtual Private Server hosting plan rather than switching to a more powerful one. The amount of system memory that the Memcached platform can use to cache content depends on the package that you are using, but even with a lower-end one, you’ll get at least several hundred megabytes, which is considerably more than the amount of memory you’d get with a shared hosting plan, so the website performance boost will be enormous. You can take advantage of the Memcached platform with any database-driven web application, no matter if you have developed it yourself or you are using a ready-made one like Joomla™, WordPress or OpenCart.

Memcached in Dedicated Servers

You can make use of the full potential of Memcached with every dedicated server that we’re offering in case you select Hepsia as your Control Panel. A special Control Panel section is dedicated to the content caching system and you can begin using Memcached for any site hosted on the machine with only several clicks. You can accelerate the performance of any Internet site, irrespective of what script-driven software application you are using or how large the site is, as the minimum amount of system memory that Memcached will be able to use is 3 GB and this amount rises considerably with the higher-end servers. Shortly after the caching system is enabled, it will begin caching data every time somebody accesses your website, so, once sufficient content has been stored, you will detect the reduced load on the dedicated machine and the optimized performance of the Internet site. The Memcached caching system is used by plenty of websites, including famous portals like Wikipedia, Reddit and Zynga, which verifies the effectiveness of the caching system.
