Memcached
Find out what Memcached is and why many people utilize it for their databases.
Memcached is a widespread memory caching platform, which can boost the loading speed and the performance of your sites substantially in case they use a database or an API. This is achieved by caching the calls to the database/API and the responses that are delivered, so when a client searches for a certain product on your Internet site, for example, the database will not have to be accessed to display the results and the whole operation will be executed noticeably quicker. That goes for all types of database-driven applications and not only for Internet shops, since every time a particular web page is visited, the application sends a request to its database to fetch the content that should be shown. With Memcached, not only will your site open much faster, but it will also create much less load. If any content in the database is modified, the cached replies will also be updated, so the website visitors won’t see any old information.

Memcached in Cloud Hosting
Memcached is offered as an upgrade with each and every
cloud hosting package offered by our company and in case you would like to use it for any script-driven website that you host on our leading-edge cloud platform, you’ll be able to enable it in several easy steps via your Hepsia hosting Control Panel. During the process, you will be given the option to upgrade two separate features – the instances and the system memory. The first one is related to the number of the sites that can use the Memcached data caching system simultaneously, so if you need it for several Internet sites, you can order a number of instances. The second one refers to the maximum amount of memory that the system will be allowed to use to cache content, so for multiple sites (or for one single large-sized site), you should order more memory for better performance. The memory comes in increments of 16 megabytes and more memory can be added at any moment. With the Memcached caching system, each script-driven website hosted on our servers will load unbelievably fast.

Memcached in Semi-dedicated Hosting
If you decide to host your Internet sites in a
semi-dedicated server account, you will be able to take advantage of Memcached with ease, as the caching platform’s setup takes a few clicks from the Hepsia Control Panel. The extension that it requires is pre-installed on our semi-dedicated servers, so you can begin using Memcached as soon as you add it to your account. You will be able to choose how many Internet sites can use it and how much info it will cache, in other words – there are two separate upgradable features – the instances and the memory. You can get more of both, so if one of your websites becomes very popular, for example, you can always order more memory. Our system is extremely flexible in this regard and we do not bind a given number of instances to a pre-defined amount of memory. You can take advantage of the Memcached platform to speed up any script-powered site, including those based on popular web applications, such as Joomla
™ or WordPress.

Memcached in VPS Hosting
If you order a
virtual private server from us, you will be able to use Memcached at no additional cost, as the distributed memory caching platform is offered with all VPS servers ordered with the Hepsia Control Panel. Even if you run content-loaded websites, you’ll be able to improve their overall performance with ease and the decreased load on your server will permit you to keep your current Virtual Private Server hosting package rather than migrating to a more powerful one. The amount of system memory that the Memcached caching platform can use to store data depends on the plan that you’re using, but even with a lower-end one, you will get no less than several hundred megabytes, which is significantly more than the amount of memory you’d get with a shared web hosting package, so the website performance boost will be noticeable. You can use the Memcached platform with any database-powered app, regardless of whether you’ve set it up yourself or you’re using a ready-for-use one like OpenCart, WordPress or Joomla
™.

Memcached in Dedicated Web Hosting
Memcached comes free of charge with all
Linux dedicated web hosting that we are offering and the only requirement is that the server must be ordered with the Hepsia Control Panel. You can use the data caching system for any database-driven Internet site, including those that are based on popular Internet apps – for instance, a WordPress personal blog or a Joomla
™-powered community web portal. Each server comes with a specific amount of system memory that the Memcached caching system can employ, but the minimum you’ll get is 3 gigabytes, which is quite enough to accelerate very busy websites significantly, since this memory will be dedicated to storing the cached info. The system will start storing data as soon as it is activated, so shortly after that, you’ll note the optimized performance of your websites and the decreased load on the dedicated server. A lot of sites use the Memcached caching system to boost their efficacy, including popular ones such as Reddit and Wikipedia.
