LiteSpeed Webserver
The LiteSpeed webserver is an optional upgrade on all VertexHost dedicated servers and is being made available on select VertexHost Shared servers.
So what is LiteSpeed and why does it matter that VertexHost.com can provide me with this?
“LiteSpeed Web Server is the leading high-performance, high-scalability web server. It is completely Apache interchangeable so LiteSpeed Web Server can quickly replace a major bottleneck in your existing web delivery platform. With its comprehensive range of features and easy-to-use web administration console, LiteSpeed Web Server can help you conquer the challenges of deploying an effective web serving architecture.
LiteSpeed Web Server has superior performance in terms of both raw speed and scalability. Our benchmarks demonstrate that it is more than 6 times faster than Apache. When serving static content, LiteSpeed surpasses well-respected content accelerators including thttpd, boa and TUX. When it comes to dynamic content, LiteSpeed is more than 50% faster in PHP content delivery than Apache with mod_php.”
At VertexHost we have found many times that we can save a customer money and give them the same performance if not better by launching a less expensive server with LiteSpeed rather then Apache. One of the other great benefits we have found is that you have an unexpected amount of traffic and Apache is bogging down with little notice, we can install LiteSpeed and get you back to tip top performance faster then upgrading your hardware.
If you aren’t sure how LiteSpeed can benefit you contact us today and a VertexHost associate can help you figure the best solution for your needs.
