Memcached is a widely used distributed memory object caching platform, which can improve the loading speed and the performance of your sites tremendously if they use a database or an API. This is achieved by caching the requests to the API/database and the replies that are delivered, so when someone searches for a given product on your Internet site, for example, the database will not have to be accessed to show the results and the entire task will be executed significantly quicker. That goes for all kinds of database-powered apps and not only for web stores, since anytime a specific page is accessed, the application sends a query to its database to get the content that should be displayed. With Memcached, not only will your site load noticeably faster, but it will also generate much less load. If any data in the database is modified, the cached replies will also be updated, so the users will not see any outdated info.

Memcached in Shared Website Hosting

If you host script-powered websites in a shared website hosting account with our company, you can add the Memcached distributed memory object caching system to your shared hosting plan with just a couple of clicks of the mouse from your Hepsia hosting Control Panel. The upgrade will be available immediately and, since the extension needed for it is already installed on our advanced cloud website 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 (in other words – how many sites will use Memcached) and to the memory that the Memcached caching system will use. The latter is available in increments of 16 MB and you can add memory as many times as you need. Naturally, the more memory the Memcached caching system is permitted to use, the more data it will cache, so if you run a high-traffic website with a lot of content, you may need more memory so as to be able to take advantage of the power that Memcached can offer you.

Memcached in Semi-dedicated Hosting

In case you decide to host your websites in a semi-dedicated server account, you will be able to take advantage of Memcached easily, since the memory caching platform’s activation takes several mouse clicks from the Hepsia hosting Control Panel. The required PHP extension is pre-installed on our servers, so you can start using Memcached the moment you add it to your semi-dedicated server account. You will be able to select how many Internet sites can use it and how much content it will cache, in other words – there are two separate upgradable features – the number of instances and the system memory. You can add more of both, so if one of your websites becomes very busy, for example, you can always order more memory. Our system is stunningly flexible in this regard and we do not tie a particular number of instances to a fixed amount of system memory. You can employ the Memcached platform to accelerate any script-driven Internet site, including those that are based on famous Internet apps, such as Joomla™ or WordPress.

Memcached in VPS Hosting

Memcached comes by default with each and every virtual private server offered by our company if you select Hepsia as your Control Panel, so you will not have to pay any extra money to be able to make the most of the maximum potential of this data caching system. The more powerful Virtual Private Server hosting package you choose, the more system memory Memcached will have for data caching purposes, but you will have at least several hundred megabytes all the time, which is much more than what you’d get with a shared plan. This will permit you to use Memcached for many sites, no matter how busy they are, which in turn goes to say that you can use a low-end package for them without overloading the VPS server. The caching system is suitable for script-based web applications such as OpenCart, Joomla™, WordPress or Mambo, and you can utilize it even with a custom-developed app. Shortly after you activate Memcached, it will start caching information and you will detect the enhanced overall performance of your sites.

Memcached in Dedicated Web Hosting

Memcached comes free of charge with all Linux dedicated servers hosting packages offered by our company and the only condition is that the dedicated machine must be ordered with the Hepsia Control Panel. You can use the data caching system for any database-powered site, including those that are based on popular web-based apps – for instance, a WordPress personal weblog or a Joomla™-powered social networking site. Each dedicated machine comes with a different amount of system memory that the Memcached system can employ, but the minimum amount you’ll get is 3 GB, which is sufficient enough to boost the loading speed of extremely popular sites substantially, as this memory will be dedicated to storing the cached content. The system will begin caching information once it’s enabled, so soon after that, you’ll distinguish the improved performance of your websites and the reduced load on the server. A lot of websites use the Memcached caching system to improve their effectiveness, including famous ones such as Reddit and Wikipedia.
