Our Lead Developer Vladimir Lasky will be presenting the talk “Make WordPress Fly With Virtual Server Hosting” at WordCamp Sydney 2014, to be held on the weekend of September 27 & 28 at the University of Technology Sydney (UTS) City Campus.
His talk advocates the benefits of moving a WordPress site from shared hosting to Virtual Private Server (VPS) hosting with information on:
- How shared hosting environments limit the performance of a WordPress site
- How VPS environments operate
- Why pure SSD storage on a VPS is essential for good performance
- The limitations and drawbacks of page caching, object caching and minifying plugins
- Why all-in-one hosting control panels are evil
- How PHP Opcode caching is the only true way to make WordPress run faster
- How MySQL query caching dramatically speeds up communication between WordPress and MySQL
- Tips on securing your VPS
Vlad presents an WordPress VPS-hosting approach designed to:
- Not be radically different from a commonly-configured LAMP software environment
- Avoid cache invalidation-related problems and minimise plugin incompatibilities
- Ensure that everyone sees the most current state of your WordPress site
- Ensure that logged in users and those working in the WordPress admin backend will also experience a speed increase
