When a visitor opens your Internet site, the browser sends a request to the web server, which in turn executes it and provides the necessary content as a response. A standard HTML site uses minimal resources because it is static, but database-driven platforms are more demanding and use much more processing time. Each page which is served creates two sorts of load - CPU load, that depends on the length of time the web server spends executing a specific script; and MySQL load, which depends on the number of database queries generated by the script while the client browses the site. Greater load shall be produced if a considerable amount of people look through a given site at the same time or if loads of database calls are made at the same time. Two examples are a discussion board with a large number of users or an online store where a visitor enters a term inside a search box and a large number of items are searched. Having detailed data about the load your site generates will enable you to improve the content or see if it's time to switch to a more powerful type of web hosting service, if the Internet site is simply getting very popular.

MySQL & Load Stats in Shared Web Hosting

Our system keeps detailed info about the system resource usage of each and every shared web hosting account that's set up on our top-notch cloud platform, so if you opt to host your websites with us, you shall have full access to this data through the Hepsia CP, which you shall get with the account. The CPU load statistics feature the CPU time and the actual execution time of your scripts, as well as how much system memory they used. You may see what processes created the load - PHP or Perl scripts, cron jobs, etcetera. The MySQL load stats section will show you the number of queries to each specific database which you have created inside your shared hosting account, the total queries for the account in general and the normal hourly rate. Comparing these numbers to the website visitor statistics will tell you if your sites perform the way they have to or if they need some optimization, that'll improve their efficiency and the overall visitor experience.

MySQL & Load Stats in Semi-dedicated Hosting

If you would like to see in depth statistics with regards to the load created by your websites, it won't take more than several clicks to do that. The Hepsia hosting Control Panel, provided with all semi-dedicated servers that we offer, features a section focused on the system resource usage and the information there can tell you if your Internet sites perform well and if the load they create corresponds to the total amount of received site visitors. The CPU load stats include the script execution time and the time it took for the server to process the requests, plus what sorts of processes produced the load. The MySQL stats will show you the number of times each individual database was accessed, and day-to-day and per hour statistics for the entire account. With both sorts of statistics, you are able to check the numbers for any of the past days and months, so you can see how the websites perform as the traffic to them increases or once you've applied some update.
