Memcached is a memory caching system, which has been gaining in popularity lately because of its efficiency. It’s used to cache calls and replies between a database and the app that is using it, which can increase the performance of your Internet site and decrease the created server load substantially. Anytime a web page on an app-powered website is opened, the app connects to the database and "asks" what information should be displayed, and then extracts it. With Memcached, these steps are omitted, since the platform has already cached the content that should appear on a particular page. In case any data is changed, the Memcached content is updated too, so the website visitors will never end up seeing outdated data. The platform is an ideal choice for any website that draws lots of visitors, since it will make it blazing-fast and will improve the overall user experience.

Memcached in Cloud Website Hosting

Memcached comes as an upgrade with each and every cloud website hosting account that we offer and if you wish to use it for any script-driven site that you host on our leading-edge cloud website hosting platform, you will be able to activate it in several simple steps through your Hepsia Control Panel. During the process, you will get the option to upgrade two separate features – the number of instances and the system memory. The first one refers to the number of the sites that can use the Memcached object caching system simultaneously, so if you need it for several sites, you can get a number of instances. The second one refers to the total amount of memory that the system will be permitted to use to cache data, so for many sites (or for one single popular site), you may want to get more memory for better results. The memory is offered in increments of 16 MB and more memory can be ordered at any point. With Memcached, every script-based Internet site hosted on our servers will load extremely fast.

Memcached in Semi-dedicated Hosting

You can add the Memcached object caching platform to any of the semi-dedicated services that we’re offering and use its full potential for any script-powered site hosted by us. The upgrade is accessible through the Hepsia hosting Control Panel and you can choose two things – the number of instances and the memory. These things define how many websites can use the Memcached caching platform and how much memory it will use to store your information. You can choose them separately, since a given instance is not linked to a specific amount of memory, so you can use lots of memory for one traffic-hungry Internet site, for example. This upgrade is offered in increments of 16 MB and you can get as much memory as you wish. The platform can be used with any script-powered website irrespective of its type, including those based on widespread Internet apps like Drupal™, WordPress or Joomla™, and plenty of companies such as Wikipedia and Zynga are already using it to boost the performance of their websites.

Memcached in VPS Web Hosting

Memcached is included by default with every virtual private server that we offer if you select Hepsia as your hosting Control Panel, so you won’t have to pay any extra cash to be able to make the most of the full capacity of this memory caching system. The more powerful VPS plan you choose, the more system memory Memcached will have for content storage purposes, but you will have no less than several hundred megabytes all the time, which is much more than what you’d get with a shared hosting plan. This will enable you to use the Memcached system for a lot of Internet sites, regardless of how large they are, which in turn goes to say that you can use a less powerful plan for them without overloading the virtual machine. The Memcached caching system is excellent for script-powered software applications like OpenCart, Joomla™, WordPress or Mambo, and you can use it even with a custom app. Shortly after you activate Memcached, it will begin caching info and you will see the improved performance of your sites.

Memcached in Dedicated Servers Hosting

When you purchase any of our Linux dedicated hosting services and if you pick Hepsia as your web hosting Control Panel on the order page, you’ll get the Memcached distributed memory caching platform by default and you can use it with each Internet site that you host on the dedicated machine without upgrading or installing anything. It will begin caching content as users access your site, so you will notice the effect of using it shortly thereafter. The minimum amount of system memory that will be available to the Memcached caching platform is 3 GB and normally, the more powerful the plan, the more memory Memcached will have at its disposal. This amount will enable you to take advantage of the caching platform for a lot of Internet sites or for a very large website without compromising its efficiency. Memcached will enable you to optimize the speed of any database-powered site in no time – a Joomla™ portal, a WordPress online diary, an OpenCart store, etc., and to enhance the performance of your dedicated machine.
