Our customers web servers are being upgraded with LiteSpeed on Wednesday 13th February. The LiteSpeed Web Server is the leading high-performance, high-scalability web server software from LiteSpeed Technologies. LiteSpeed is significantly faster than the existing Apache web server software (LiteSpeed is a drop in replacement for Apache) and as a result sites will load faster and can handle more traffic.
Why are we introducing LiteSpeed?
LiteSpeed is able to serve all connections using fewer processes therefore saving resources. This efficient method of serving connections means many more connections can be made and at a much higher rate.
What to expect
Simply – faster hosting. LiteSpeed can improve page load times and reduce Time to First Byte (TTFB) meaning visitors will browse your site more quickly and easily as a result of reduced page load times.
Performance improvements
A good free tool for measuring website performance is GTMetrix. It provides scores and indications on items to look at in order to improve load time.
