Speed
There is a proven connection between page load time and conversion rate. A lower page load time correlates to more customers converting and having a great shopping experience on your site.
Speed Matters…
Unrivaled store performance, load balancing and advanced caching facility
THE Ecommerce Operating System
SpeedStack was developed as part of an increasing demand for a high performance, highly secure Magento operating system. We found that over the past 8 years our whole customer base was running Magento so we built SpeedStack based on Alma Linux. SpeedStack also makes a huge difference in WordPress/Woocommerce site load times.
Ease of use
You may have read that CPanel won’t cut in in an enterprise deployment. This is just Not true! We have tested time and time again that our SpeedStack CPanel stacks scales and out performs the competitions bespoke platforms consistently.
Low Cost
SpeedStack is bundled with all our servers, dedicated, M-Cloud and Shared. No need to pay for expensive bespoke server stacks that are complex to use and eat into your bottom line. It’s simple, secure, fast and mature.
Secure
Advanced virtual and physical auto blocking firewalling, denial of service filtering, brute force detection and intrusion prevention ensure that your store is secure and stays secure. Built in WAF with dynamic protection.
- Built on Alma Linux
SpeedStack is built on Alma Linux, renowned for its high security and stability that attempts to provide a enterprise-class platform which aims to be functionally compatible with its upstream source, Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL).
- Only runs on dedicated Dell hardware
To achieve the fastest possible Magento focused performance, SpeedStack is only run on Dell enterprise hardware. This means every deployment is entirely separate and has guaranteed resources
- Software
SpeedStack can be delivered in multiple configurations either Apache, NGINX or Litespeed Enterprise web servers. Other software can include WebCharger, Varnish cache, Redis, Zend Opcode cache, Apache SOLR, Sphinx Search, MySQL, Percona.
- WebCharger
WebCharger is a cache, also known as a dynamic content cache, a server level caching system which helps improve performance for Magento websites with high traffic.
WebCharger cache has similar features as Apache mod_cache but implemented in a more efficient way, and works like Varnish. It is an output cache for dynamic contents, so the usage does not limit to PHP pages. Unlike Varnish, it is built into LiteSpeed web server, eliminating one layer of reverse proxy. Hence more efficient for static contents. The uniqueness of WebCharger cache is that it uses rewrite rules (either in configuration files or .htaccess) to control its behavior for maximum flexibility.
Private cache is for caching resources for individual specifically, instead of public shared. The purposes are:
Maintain a persistent cache for applications that do not have a shared cache.
Maintain a private persistent cache for specific groups of documents that are not to be shared among other applications.
No more hole punching Magento extensions with Varnish!
WebCharger is only available with Litespeed Enterprise
- Tried and tested
We’ve developed SpeedStack slowly and steadily since 2009, its been based on Centos 5 and 6 and now, Alma Linux, we also have Litespeed available as an option
- All the things needed to make Magnto run like a dream
SpeedStack is installed and comes pre-configured for advanced Magento speed and efficiency, Redis, Opcode caching and a highly tunded PHP config.
- True enterprise class backups
For your complete peace of mind, SpeedStack backs up your data and retains daily, weekly and monthly backups if required. R1Soft external backup stores your data in our backup suite and is available as standard on shared accounts and some dedicated plans. R1Soft can be added to any dedicated server at cost if it is not included in your plan.
- Constant monitoring and reporting
Managed SpeedStack customers benefit from state of the art monitoring for all critical services and processes with emails notification from international monitoring servers.
- Highly available, all of the time
SpeedStack is HA for when you need to be online and be tolerate to hardware failure with zero data loss and no downtime. Critical if your running high budget paid search or TV marketing campaigns.
- Load balancing
For sites with very high levels of concurrent users choose a cluster of two or more servers behind a pair of redundant LVS routers that distribute client requests evenly throughout the cluster system, reducing wait times and increasing orders to your store.
- SQL Clustering
Offload busy sites to a dedicated MySQL server and serve your web pages via a separate dedicated server.
