Memcached is a memory caching platform, which has been gaining in popularity lately because of its efficiency. It’s used to cache queries and responses between a database and the application that uses it, which can boost the overall performance of your site and reduce the produced server load immensely. Every time a page on an app-powered site is accessed, the application connects to the database and "asks" what information should be displayed, and then drags it. With Memcached, these steps are omitted, since the platform has already cached the content that should show up on a certain page. When any content is updated, the Memcached content is ‘refreshed’ as well, so the users will never see out-of-date content. The Memcached platform is an ideal choice for every Internet site that entices a lot of viewers, since it will increase its loading speed and will improve the user experience.

Memcached in Hosting

Memcached is offered as an optional upgrade with each hosting account that we are offering and if you would like to use it for any script-driven Internet site that you host on our leading-edge cloud website hosting platform, you will be able to activate it in a few easy steps through your Hepsia Control Panel. In the meantime, you’ll get the option to upgrade two different features – the instances and the memory. The first one refers to the number of the Internet sites that can use the Memcached content caching system at the same time, so if you need it for several sites, you can order a number of instances. The second one refers to the total amount of memory that the system will be able to use to cache content, so for numerous sites (or for one large-sized site), you may want to order more memory for improved performance. The memory comes in increments of 16 MB and more memory can be added every time you need it. With the Memcached caching system, any script-driven Internet site hosted on our cloud servers will open much faster.

Memcached in Semi-dedicated Hosting

If you get any of our semi-dedicated server packages, you will find Memcached as an optional feature in the Upgrades section of the Hepsia Control Panel, so if you would like to use it for any of the Internet sites hosted in your account, you can activate it with only a few clicks of the mouse. The distributed memory caching platform is perfect for any script-powered web app such as Joomla™, WordPress, or even an in-house made app, and depending on your requirements, you will be able to select two separate things – how many websites will use the Memcached platform, i.e. the number of instances; and how much info will be stored, i.e. the amount of memory that the platform will use. The two features are not tied to each other, so if you own a busy website with a lot of content, you can get one instance and a large amount of system memory. The Memcached platform will boost the overall performance of your Internet sites shortly after you enable it and both you and your site visitors will enjoy much faster loading speeds.

Memcached in VPS Web Hosting

You’ll get Memcached with any of the virtual private server plans that we offer in case you choose Hepsia as your Control Panel and you’ll be able to activate the platform through the section with the same name. The configuration requires several clicks and you will see the difference in the performance of your Internet sites almost immediately. The amount of memory that Memcached can employ to store information depends on the particular VPS plan that you’ve picked, but at any rate it won’t be less than several hundred MB, which is more than enough even for several large websites. You can use the Memcached platform with Internet sites based on WordPress, Joomla™ or any other web application and lower the load on your virtual machine, which will allow you to continue using the current VPS plan rather than moving to a more powerful one, since you simply won’t need it. Memcached is already being used by popular websites like Reddit, Wikipedia and Zynga, which demonstrates its efficiency.

Memcached in Dedicated Servers Hosting

You can use the full potential of Memcached with each and every dedicated server that we offer if you select Hepsia as your Control Panel. A section in it is dedicated to the data caching system and you can begin using Memcached for any website hosted on the server with only several mouse clicks. You can increase the performance of any website, regardless of what script-driven application you are using or how popular the website is, since the minimum amount of system memory that Memcached will be able to employ is three gigabytes and this amount increases substantially with the more powerful dedicated servers. Soon after the system is activated, it will begin caching info every time somebody browses your website, so, as soon as sufficient info has been cached, you will notice the reduced load on your dedicated server and the enhanced overall performance of the website. The Memcached caching system is being used by lots of websites, among them famous portals like Zynga, Reddit and Wikipedia, which proves the effectiveness of the Memcached system.
