How We Achieve Lightning-Fast Speeds  

Global CDN
Our free 20i Content Delivery Network (CDN) caches your content in high-performance data centres across the world. With 40% of visitors leaving a site that takes longer than 3 seconds to load, global distribution is essential. Our CDN nodes minimise latency, reduce origin load and deliver consistently fast page speeds no matter where your traffic originates. 

Autoscaling servers
With our Autoscaling technology, your site isn’t restricted to a single server. It can access across the entire platform’s resources, including CPU, RAM, disk I/O and PHP workers, whenever needed. This means if there’s a spike in demand and your shared hosting ‘neighbours’ become busy, it doesn’t affect your site speed. Busy sites are isolated from others. 

This is unique to 20i and trusted by more than 1 million websites. 

High-Performance Infrastructure Without Limits
Our data centres run on enterprise-grade hardware and high-frequency compute nodes, the same class of infrastructure trusted by hyperscale cloud providers and major financial institutions.  

Built for high-performance workloads, they deliver exceptional speed and stability whether you’re running an ecommerce site, a media-rich project or resource-intensive applications.  

And because we’re not restricted by single-server technologies like cPanel or CloudLinux, we don’t impose artificial LVE-style caps on CPU, memory, bandwidth or PHP processes. There’s no resource overselling on our platform, ensuring your site always gets the computing power it needs, even during peak demand. 

Optimised PHP
Our developers have customised PHP-FPM and OPcache to ensure that your website gets the resources it needs, even if it’s busy.  

Our code boosts performance for every website running PHP 5.6 or above. For more recent versions of PHP, the speed improvements are even more pronounced. As we’re not constrained by Cloud Linux, we don’t have to impose limits on cores, memory, bandwidth and processes. Your site stays fast however busy it gets. 

Autoscaling PHP Workers
We don’t impose hard limits on PHP workers. Our platform features genuine, proprietary autoscaling for PHP workers, which automatically adjusts resources in real-time to handle traffic spikes and ensure consistent performance. This means there are no manual limits to set, and your site can handle unlimited concurrent users 

Advanced Database Infrastructure
Our distributed MySQL infrastructure separates database workloads from file I/O and PHP execution. This means database activity can scale independently without competing for the same server resources. The result is: 

  • Faster and more stable SQL query performance
  • Improved resilience during traffic spikes 
  • Reduced bottlenecks for dynamic CMSs relying heavily on database calls

This is especially important for WordPress, WooCommerce and other database-intensive platforms.

StackCache
StackCache is our proprietary WordPress plugin that works in tandem with their global Content Delivery Network (CDN) to provide comprehensive caching for both static and dynamic content, which is a key component of their overall Website Acceleration Suite and implicitly provides “Dynamic Request Acceleration” by delivering content closer to the user
