Memcached is a caching system, which has been gaining in popularity in recent years thanks to its efficiency. It is used to cache calls and responses between a database and the application that uses it, which can accelerate the performance of your site and reduce the produced server load greatly. Anytime a webpage on an app-powered Internet site is visited, the app connects to the database and "asks" what info should be shown, and then pulls it. With Memcached, these procedures are skipped, since the platform has already cached the content that should be shown on a given webpage. If any data is edited, the Memcached content is ‘refreshed’ too, so the website visitors will never see outdated content. The Memcached platform is an ideal solution for every site that attracts many viewers, since it will make it extremely fast and will improve the user experience.

Memcached in Hosting

Memcached comes as an optional upgrade with each hosting account that we offer and if you’d like to use it for any script-driven Internet site that you host on our cutting-edge cloud platform, you will be able to activate it in a couple of simple steps through your Hepsia hosting Control Panel. During the process, you will be given the option to upgrade two separate things – the number of instances and the system memory. The first one has to do with the number of the websites that can use the Memcached object caching system at the same time, so if you need it for several Internet sites, you can get a number 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 websites (or for one single large site), you may want to order more memory for improved performance. The memory is offered in increments of 16 MB and more memory can be added every time you need it. With Memcached, any script-powered Internet site hosted on our cloud servers will load incredibly fast.

Memcached in Semi-dedicated Hosting

You can add the Memcached caching platform to any of the Linux semi-dedicated hosting offered by our company and use its full potential for any script-powered website hosted by us. The upgrade is offered through the Hepsia hosting Control Panel and you can choose two things – the number of instances and the amount of system memory. These things indicate how many websites can use Memcached and how much system memory it will use to store your content. You can choose them separately, since a given instance is not bound to a specific amount of memory, so you can use a lot of memory for one frequently visited site, for instance. This upgrade is offered in increments of 16 megabytes and you can order as much memory as you wish. The platform can be used with any script-driven website irrespective of its nature, including those based on widespread software apps like WordPress, Joomla™ or Drupal™, and plenty of companies like Zynga and Wikipedia are already using it to boost the loading speed of their sites.

Memcached in VPS Hosting

Memcached is included by default with each virtual private server that we are offering provided that you pick Hepsia as your Control Panel, so you won’t have to pay any extra money to be able to use the power of this memory caching system. The more powerful Virtual Private Server hosting plan you select, the more memory Memcached will have for data caching purposes, but you will have at least several hundred MB at all times, which is much more than what you’d get with a shared plan. This will enable you to use the Memcached caching system for numerous sites, irrespective of how large they are, which in turn goes to say that you can use a less powerful package for them without overloading your server. The caching system is perfect for script-driven web apps such as Joomla™, WordPress, OpenCart or Mambo, and you can use it even with a custom-created app. Shortly after you enable Memcached, it will begin caching information and you’ll note the improved overall performance of your websites.

Memcached in Dedicated Web Hosting

You can take advantage of the full potential of Memcached with every dedicated server that we are offering if you select Hepsia as your hosting Control Panel. A special Control Panel section is dedicated to the data caching system and you can begin using Memcached for any Internet site hosted on the dedicated server with only a couple of clicks of the mouse. You can enhance the performance of any site, regardless of what script-based app you rely on or how heavy the website is, since the minimum amount of system memory that Memcached will be able to use is 3 GB and this amount rises immensely with the more powerful servers. Shortly after the caching system is enabled, it will begin caching content every time somebody visits your site, so, once enough information has been cached, you’ll detect the decreased load on your dedicated machine and the enhanced overall performance of the site. Memcached is being used by many sites, among them famous portals such as Wikipedia, Reddit and Zynga, which demonstrates the effectiveness of the caching system.
