New High Frequency Hosting Plans Increase Performance by Up to 126%

Explore the latest and most efficient infrastructure in our hosting lineup, and experience the remarkable speed advantages of our cutting-edge High Frequency hosting options.

It’s as though our top-notch and well-regarded managed hosting couldn’t get any better…

We have elevated our offerings by launching 7 innovative High Frequency (HF) plans that redefine what it means to perform at a high level.

What sets these plans apart? How potent are they? And what are the reasons to consider High Frequency Hosting?

All is answered in this article, as we give you the lowdown on our newest high-octane creations and put them to the ultimate test.

Here’s what we’re covering:

  • What does High Frequency Hosting entail?
  • CPU Performance: High Frequency vs Regular Hosting
  • Disk Performance: High Frequency vs Regular Hosting
  • Deploy High Frequency Hosting in Minutes

Can you explain what High Frequency Hosting refers to?

Over the years, we’ve introduced many new plans to our hosting lineup, but these High Frequency plans are an entirely different beast.

This is due to the fact that, while they are constructed on the same robust infrastructure as our other plans, they possess a distinct hardware configuration.

This is what sets these plans apart and allows them to handle more traffic load, perform tasks at a higher speed, and execute operations more effectively (more on that soon).

Here’s a quick look at the next generation technology behind our HF plans:

3GHz+ Intel Xeon CPUs

High Frequency plans are powered by blazing-fast 3GHz+ Intel Xeon processors that are made specifically for sites requiring uncompromising performance.

This cutting edge processor greatly outperforms standard CPUs, which for context, typically fall within the 2GHz range.

NVMe SSD storage

If your local disk storage is slow, having a high-speed CPU won’t make much of a difference.

This is the advantage of NVMe SSD storage, which unlike regular SSD storage, has the capacity to match the enhanced CPU throughput.

Combine these two hardware elements, and you have a recipe for high-performance architecture that seamlessly handles increasing requests and maintains reliability as your hosted site’s workload continues to grow.

You and your clients will also experience the following advantages:

  • Better and faster user experiences – Superior CPU and disk performance ensures smooth and blazing-fast user experiences with absolute minimal site downtime and disruption.
  • Scale hosting seamlessly – HF servers are designed to accommodate and effortlessly scale with increasing website demand. Plan upgrades are also easy and affordable.
  • Differentiate yourself from the competition – Enhance your hosting offerings to attract customers in search of top-performing options.

But enough about the tech and what performance benefits High Frequency ‘should’ give you.

Next, we will truly put them to the test, so you can see how powerful they really are for yourself.

Conducting an experiment with high frequency.

Before launching these new plans to the world we had to be sure they lived up to their name.

So, our expert hosting team arranged a set of tests to see how these plans performed in real-world scenarios compared to our regular plans.

We decided to test two crucial categories when it comes to hosting performance: CPU performance and disk performance.

This is what happened:

CPU Performance: High Frequency vs Regular Hosting

Methodology:

For the first two tests in the CPU performance category, we simulated multiple people visiting our website’s cached and uncached home page using the ‘Maintain client load’ method.

For the third evaluation, we replicated the scenario of customers repeatedly placing an item in their shopping cart on our online platform, utilizing the same approach for generating traffic.

All three tests involved scaling up page visitors to a targeted max client count, specific to each plan, within five minutes. During this time, each client repeatedly made requests, simulating high-traffic website use.

The best plans handle more requests and have a lower (faster) average response time.

This is how everything happened:

1. Load test for increasing traffic on *cached* home page

CPU Performance: High Frequency vs Regular hosting plans
CPU Performance test (home page – cached): High Frequency vs Regular hosting plans.

Here is the test data:

A table showing the results of our cached home page test

The Results: Up to 108% performance increase!

  • 40-108% increase in requests handled (Regular vs. HF plans)
  • Improved average response time across the board, including over half the average response time (Bronze Regular vs. Bronze HF)

2. Load test for increasing traffic on *uncached* home page

CPU Performance: High Frequency vs Regular hosting plans (home page - uncached)
CPU Performance test (home page – uncached): High Frequency vs Regular hosting plans.

Here is the test data:

A table showing the results of our uncached home page performance test

Results: Up to 126% performance increase!

  • 61-126% increase in requests handled (Regular vs. HF plans)
  • Improved average response time across the board, including almost half the average response time (Bronze Regular vs. Bronze HF)

3. Stress testing PHP with repeated add-to-cart simulations

CPU Performance: High Frequency vs Regular - add to cart
Results from stress testing PHP with repeated add-to-cart simulations.

Here is the test data:

a table showing the results of our add to card performance test

Results: Up to 108% performance increase!

  • 51-108% increase in requests handled (Regular vs. HF plans)
  • Improved average response time across the board, including a 33.19% speed increase (Bronze Regular vs. Bronze HF)

Disk Performance: High Frequency vs Regular Hosting

Methodology:

For this performance test category we used the FIO (Flexible I/O) tool to perform random read and write operations on the disk.

The higher read/write speed = better upload/download. Faster read/write also means increased database performance.

Testing disk performance through random read/write operations

A table showing the results of our read/write testing

Results: Up to 2.79x performance increase!

  • 1.7-2.78x increase in Read speed (Regular vs. HF plans)
  • 1.71-2.79x increase in Write speed (Regular vs. HF Plans)

In recent times, there has been a surge in the need for high-performance web hosting as more people and companies seek quicker and more dependable internet services. Hosting providers have responded by creating new technologies and packages that cater to these needs. One such innovation is the high frequency hosting plans, which have been proven to boost performance by up to 126%.

These high frequency hosting plans offer users rapid speeds and unmatched dependability. They use cutting-edge hardware and software, including high-frequency processors, solid-state drives, and sophisticated caching methods. This results in a hosting solution capable of managing even the most challenging websites and applications effortlessly.

A major advantage of high frequency hosting plans is their ability to lower latency. Latency refers to the time it takes for data to travel from the server to the user’s device, and it can greatly affect website performance. High frequency hosting plans employ advanced networking technologies to reduce latency, leading to quicker page loading times and a better user experience.

High frequency hosting plans are also equipped to handle large volumes of traffic. Many websites experience traffic surges during peak periods, which can overwhelm standard hosting solutions, causing slow performance or downtime. High frequency hosting plans are built to manage these surges seamlessly, ensuring your website stays fast and reliable regardless of visitor numbers.

Besides their performance benefits, high frequency hosting plans also come with improved security features. These plans often include advanced firewalls, intrusion detection systems, and other security measures to safeguard your website from cyber threats. This extra layer of protection offers reassurance that your website and data are secure from hackers and other malicious entities.

In summary, high frequency hosting plans mark a significant advancement in web hosting technology. With the potential to enhance performance by up to 126%, these plans are ideal for businesses and individuals who require top-tier speed, reliability, and security. Whether you operate an online store, a blog, or a complex web application, a high frequency hosting plan can help you reach your objectives and deliver an outstanding online experience to your users.
