Integrating <a href=\"https:\/\/www.20i.com\/cdn\">20iCDN<\/a> with 20iCloud offers performance benefits such as faster website load times.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is achieved by storing a copy of your website at the network edge, meaning requests don\u2019t need to go through the origin server to generate the webpage (which also saves on server resources).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This uptick in performance is vital for high traffic websites.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Web Optimisation Tools<\/strong><br>A bloated website will perform poorly, even on a high spec Managed Hosting server. Our web optimisation tools slim down the bloat without affecting the appearance of your website.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Optimisations are made at the server level, so you don&#8217;t need multiple plugins to \u201coptimise\u201d your sites. Fewer plugins improves the performance of PHP and results in faster load times.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>OPcache<\/strong><br>OPcache is an opcode cache. Opcode caching saves compiled PHP code between every request, making it available at less than a moment\u2019s notice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>PHP-FPM<\/strong><br>PHP-FPM manages PHP processes and can handle a high volume of queries, making it especially useful for sites with heavy traffic or complex web applications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>No cap on PHP workers<\/strong><br>With our Managed Cloud Hosting, you don\u2019t need to worry about the number of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.20i.com\/blog\/php-workers-and-wordpress-how-they-impact-your-hosting-performance\">PHP workers<\/a> available or having to manually set the number of PHP workers per website: they will be scaled to meet the needs of website traffic in line with the specification of your servers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Elasticsearch<\/strong><br>Our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.20i.com\/woocommerce-hosting\">WooCommerce<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.20i.com\/magento-hosting\">Magento Optimised Managed Cloud Hosting<\/a> make use of Elasticsearch to provide numerous benefits for WooCommerce and Magento websites, including fast and accurate searches \u2013 Ideal for websites with extensive product catalogues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Redis<\/strong><br><a href=\"https:\/\/www.20i.com\/blog\/redis-object-caching-wordpress\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Redis<\/a> stores results of MySQL queries that are executed. By caching this data, Redis reduces the need to query the database repeatedly, resulting in faster page load times and improved overall performance for website.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Final Thoughts<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Hopefully this article has highlighted some of the benefits of our Managed Cloud Hosting with regards to your specific use case.&nbsp; It is very easy to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.20i.com\/website-migration\">migrate to 20i<\/a> with the help of our automated Migration Centre.
