Our exclusive A2 Optimized Site Accelerator is a cPanel plugin providing pre-configured  cachingfor your applications from a single interface for even faster page loads. Caching options include:

• Turbo Cache- The entire HTML contentsof a page is stored by Turbo Cache and served without running PHPfor up to 20X fasterpage loads.
• Memcached - Increases the speed of your MySQL databases by keeping your most important data in memoryfor quicker retrieval.
• OPcache - Dramatically improves PHP performance by storing scripts in shared memory instead of requiring PHP to load and parse scripts for each request.
• Object Caching using Redis - Object caching is the preferred form of caching for WordPress sites. Redis is a way of caching, where separate from traditional caching methods, it caches the individual parts so it's quicker to grab again the next time, speeding up page load times.

HTTP/2 and HTTP/3 are major revisions to the HTTP network protocol and are included with all Turbo plans. HTTP/3 provides significantly faster page load times than HTTP because of its ability to deliver more HTTP requests at once and prioritize those requests.  HTTP/3 delivers files 20%-30% faster than HTTP.

With ESI, you no longer have to designate an entire page as non-cacheable just because one portion cannot be cached. Instead you can easily designate portions of your page to be cached (or not cached) with ESI. This is significant especially for sites created by applications like Magento or WordPress.

Our network is redundant with multiple 10 GB carriers in all data center locations!
