Varnish is a data caching platform, which is occasionally called a caching HTTP reverse proxy. It is a web application accelerator tool that can improve the loading speed of a site by up to 1000 percent, based on the content itself. Anytime a visitor accesses any page on a website that uses Varnish, the platform caches the page and delivers it instead of the web server when the visitor opens it again. In this way, the browser request from the visitor is not handled by the web server and the page will load tremendously faster, as Varnish can serve content many times faster than any web server software. The end result will be a significantly faster loading page, which means an enormously improved website browsing experience. When any of the cached webpages is updated on the live website, the content that Varnish keeps in its memory is updated too, so the site visitors will never end up seeing out-of-date data.

Varnish in Cloud Web Hosting

Varnish is offered as an optional upgrade with each and every cloud web hosting and if you wish to use it, you can add it to your shared website hosting account through the Upgrades section in your Hepsia hosting Control Panel. There are two different things that can be upgraded – the instances and the memory. The first one depends on the number of the websites that you wish to use Varnish for and the second one, which comes in increments of 32 MB, pertains to the total amount of data that the platform can store at any particular moment. Hepsia’s time and effort saving graphical interface will allow you to shut down or to restart any instance, to check comprehensive system logs or to delete the platform’s cache with just a click. For optimal results, you can employ a dedicated IP for the sites that will use the platform. With Varnish, your site will load tremendously faster, which means more pleased website users and prospective customers.
