Memcached is a caching platform, which has been gaining popularity in recent years because of its effectiveness. It’s used to cache calls and responses between a database and the app that’s using it, which can accelerate the performance of your website and lessen the generated load immensely. Anytime a web page on an app-powered Internet site is visited, the app connects to the database and "asks" what information should be displayed, and then pulls it. With Memcached, these steps are omitted, since the platform has already cached the content that should be displayed on a given page. When any content is changed, the Memcached content is updated too, so the visitors will never see old content. The Memcached platform is an ideal solution for every Internet site that attracts many visitors, as it will make it extra-fast and will enhance the overall user experience.

Memcached in Cloud Hosting

You can take advantage of Memcached with all cloud hosting offered by our company. It’s available as an optional upgrade, which you can add with just a few mouse clicks through your Hepsia web hosting Control Panel. It requires a PHP extension, which is pre-installed on our cloud website hosting platform, so you can begin using the Memcached caching system the moment you order it. The upgrade is divided into two parts, which will offer you more flexibility depending on the sites that you would like to use it for. The first part indicates the number of the sites that will use Memcached, or the so-called ‘instances’, while the second one is related to the system memory, i.e. to how much content Memcached will be able to cache. You can add more system memory in increments of 16 MB and the more memory you have, the more data will be cached, which may be a rather good idea for busy websites with large-sized databases and many users. Thus, you can boost the overall performance of any script-driven website hosted on our servers without any effort.

Memcached in Semi-dedicated Hosting

If you acquire one of our semi-dedicated server plans, you’ll find Memcached as an optional feature in the Upgrades part of your Hepsia hosting Control Panel, so if you wish to use it for any of the Internet sites hosted in your semi-dedicated account, you can add it with only a few mouse clicks. The distributed memory caching platform is ideal for any script-based application like WordPress, Joomla, or even an in-house built application, and based on your demands, you’ll be able to choose two different features – how many Internet sites will use the Memcached platform, i.e. the number of instances; and how much content will be cached, in other words – the amount of system memory that the platform will employ. The two things are not bound to each other, so if you’ve got a popular Internet site with lots of content, you can order one instance and a large amount of system memory. The Memcached caching platform will optimize the overall performance of your websites soon after you activate it and both you and your website visitors will enjoy much faster loading times.

Memcached in VPS Web Hosting

You will get Memcached with each of the virtual private server plans that we are offering in case you pick Hepsia as your Control Panel and you’ll be able to activate the object caching platform via the Control Panel section with the exact same name. The configuration requires several clicks and you will detect the difference in the overall performance of your Internet sites almost immediately. The amount of memory that Memcached can use to cache info depends on the given Virtual Private Server plan that you’ve chosen, but in any case it will not be less than several hundred megabytes, which is more than enough even for several resource-heavy Internet sites. You can use the Memcached platform with sites powered by WordPress, Joomla or any other web application and reduce the load on your server, which will permit you to continue using the current package rather than moving to a more powerful one, as you will simply not need it. Memcached is already being used by famous websites like Reddit, Zynga and Wikipedia, which is an evidence of its efficacy.

Memcached in Dedicated Servers Hosting

When you buy one of our Linux dedicated servers hosting and if you select Hepsia as your hosting Control Panel during the signup procedure, you’ll get the Memcached content caching platform as standard and you can use it with any website that you host on the server without upgrading or installing anything. It will begin storing information as people access your site, so you will notice the result of using it soon after that. The minimum amount of memory that will be available to the caching platform is 3 GB and naturally, the more powerful the dedicated package, the more memory Memcached will have at its disposal. This amount will permit you to use the platform for numerous Internet sites or for a very heavy website without compromising its effectiveness. The Memcached platform will enable you to enhance the speed of any database-driven Internet site very quickly – a Joomla portal, a WordPress weblog, an OpenCart store, etc., and to enhance the performance of your dedicated server.
