Web Hosting RocketWeb- For true connoisseurs
RocketWeb is the Web Hosting solution specifically conceived for Geeks: people who know what they need and what they want, don't randomly choose the internet provider for their projects and don't just look at the cost.
RocketWeb: GoFast because it is the web hosting with guaranteed, superior and uncompromising performance. RocketWeb servers can host a predefined number of websites and this allows us to know in advance what performance can be achieved and thus be guaranteed to customers.
RocketWeb: GoScaling because it is the only hosting plan that can be completely customized. Unlike most hosting plan offers, RocketWeb allows you to choose parameters that are usually not indicated but are stated buried deep in the contracts.
RocketWeb is the unique, original offer and certainly unconventional, just as the customers it is intended for: the Geeks!
Superior Technologies, Guaranteed Performance
The technologies used by Rocketweb are industry leaders. They are the only ones that can offer a specific allocation of computational resources such as CPU frequency, dedicated RAM memory, and number of simultaneous connections. In addition, unparalleled security is provided by the Cage File System.
A high-performance caching system helps to have a site always available at the maximum speed.
Scalable Hosting when you need it
When your project grows, your hosting plan can also grow according to your needs. If your site needs more CPU power to speed up calculations or other operations you can increase the CPU power by adding additional MegaHertz.
If your database grows in size, you may need to increase the reserved RAM memory and you can do it at any time. If contemporary users increase or if your site has many images and you need more disk speed, you can increase these values.
CloudLinux OS
CloudLinux OS is a platform conceived for Providers offering Shared Hosting.
It improves web server stability, density and security through the isolation of each website, which is given only the allocated resources.
CloudLinux OS implements the LVE technology, which stands for Lightweight Virtual Environment, along with Apache and NGINX.
Each website is isolated in its own LVE environment with its own reserved resources, such as CPU, RAM memory, Disk I/O, Connections and Processes.
Benefits for Websites
- Consistent performance over time
- Contractually defined resources
- Monitoring of resources used
- Security
- Higher Uptime
Rocketweb: like a Virtual Server but with the convenience of Shared Hosting
Thanks to CloudLinux OS, Rocketweb offering actually creates an environment that looks more like a Virtual Server than a shared hosting account.
Why are hosted sites slow?
You may wonder why your website, be it a CMS such as Wordpress, Joomla, Drupal or an ecommerce such as Prestashop, WooCommerce or Magento, is very slow at times, if not always slow. The reasons may be different. Here are some of the main infrastructural causes, with the exclusion of issues related to the site itself.
-
Low performance web servers
Servers are obsolete, undersized or in a Cloud infrastructure with no guaranteed performance. -
Overloaded Web servers - Overselling
Too many websites on a single server -
Web Hosting offering without guarantees
Lack of resources allocated to the website -
Technological Deficiency
The servers do not have advanced systems for the management, monitoring and control of the resources of individual sites. In these cases a single site can absorb all resources
In 50% of the cases the slowdowns and downtime of shared Hosting web servers depend on 1 single website.
For 25% of the servers, 1% of the top hosted sites, is responsible for 50% of all requests.
For 50% of web servers, 1% of top hosted sites, is responsible for 35% of all requests.
This means that for a shared hosting web server, which hosts for example 200 websites, only 2 of the hosted sites use 35% to 50%.
A professional offer
The RocketWeb offer is a professional hosting offer because:
- Web servers are based on Stellar Enterprise-Class infrastructure with guaranteed and consistent performance over time. HP Multi Cluster + VMware hypervisor + SSD disks.
- Il numero massimo di siti web ospitato sui server Rocketweb dipende dalle risorse allocate ai siti e da quelle totali assegnate al server. Non c’è overselling delle risorse
- The maximum number of websites hosted on RocketWeb servers is calculated according to the resources allocated to the sites and the total resources allocated to the server. There is no overselling of resources.
- The RocketWeb hosting offer is unique. The resources allocated to each site are contractually defined and the customer can monitor them at any time. The technologies used by Rocketweb are the best in the market today.

Simultaneous Connections
The goal of any website -a corporate showcase, a blog, an e-commerce site or a landing page- is to have the greatest number of visitors. And when your marketing campaign is launched on Adwords, Facebook or Twitter, and your DEM reaches the target audience or your SEO work gets its effects, then the number of accesses to the site grow (as well as the conversion rate you’ve worked for).
If the features of your hosting are adequate, visitors will not have to wait long to load the page, if otherwise.. they may be unable to browse the site within a reasonable time or even receive errors from the web server.
SIMULTANEOUS CONNECTIONS TO A WEBSITE IS THE ACHILLES’ HEEL OF MANY SHARED HOSTING.
How to prevent so much planning, implementation and promotion efforts from melting away like snow in the sun? Let’s find out!
In your work, you certainly leave few things to chance, but what parameters do you use to consider that your projects are based on good foundations?
There are 3 possible answers:
-
Awareness
I know because I know the specific parameters that my projects need. -
Empirical
So far, based on my evidence, it's always worked... -
Emulation
I don't know what to think and I don't believe my evidence is enough. I trust what others have done.
If the choice of your hosting has been made on an empirical or emulation basis, then be aware that you risk compromising the outcome of your project, which you put the effort of weeks, months or even years on.
You will damage yourself and your client!
CPU
When a database is queried by a web page, the CPU plays a key role.
The web server will have to work for a certain amount of time and power (MHz) so that the request can be satisfied quickly. If the web server that hosts many other websites is overloaded, your site will not have the guarantee of being able to access adequate computing resources to perform the required task. The results can be different: it can be either a longer loading time, or in even a "time out" error.
Knowing how many MHz of CPU are guaranteed for your web hosting is a piece of information you cannot afford to lack.
RAM and Database Memory
Many hosting plans are cheap and allow you to have very large databases, up to 2GBs or maybe even more. To obtain adequate performance, you need to know that you need to allocate at least as much RAM as the size of the database (or the sum of the dimensions of each DB if using several databases).
When you find a Hosting that promises big MySQL databases, be sure that you are guaranteed that the memory allocated to your project is equal to or greater than the maximum size of the database. Otherwise what is not in the RAM will be read from the server disks.
RAM is 100 thousand times faster than disks in accessing databases.
Contemporary connections per second
So far, we talked about two fundamental elements: RAM memory and CPU. Not knowing the values of these two parameters may not seem like a determining factor at times. In fact, when you test a website, you perform all the necessary tests to see if it loads quickly… and everything seems to be going well.
But remember that in that moment there is only you who is testing the website: that means there is only 1 access! When the site goes into production and all the campaign activities start to bring the largest number of visitors to the site, the number of simultaneous connections will grow.
Knowing the maximum number of simultaneous connections per second that the web provider has guaranteed for your hosting is of uttermost importance. There is a close correlation between the number of simultaneous connections (processes) and CPU, RAM and disk I/O values.
It is not possible to think the web hosting is able to satisfy so many simultaneous connections without adequate guaranteed resources in terms of CPU, RAM and disk I/O.
Get on board with informed choices!
Improved performance with Apache + NGINX
Using Apache with NGINX at the same time can improve the power of the web server and speed up the hosted websites.
NGINX is an additional high performance web server which is normally used as a reverse proxy server. This web server is specially designed to distribute large amounts of static content (such as images, videos, scripts, code, JS, CSS, XML, etc.).
Unlike Apache, NGINX is much more effective when it comes to handling a large number of simultaneous connections. Another advantage of this web server over Apache is that NGINX has significantly less memory footprint per client connection.
To enhance the advantages of NGINX, Rocketweb Hosting servers are configured to use it as a reverse proxy server that acts between the Internet and Apache.
NGINX thus becomes a front-end web server that processes all incoming requests from site visitors.
Requests are then passed to Apache which distinguishes between static and dynamic content requests. When the request is for a static file such as images, CSS, HTML, etc.., Apache passes the request through all registered handlers and returns to NGINX a response that contains only the location of the requested file on the file system. NGINX locates the file and sends it to the client. If the request is for a dynamic file such as a PHP script, Apache executes the file and sends the response to NGINX, which delivers it to the client.
Apache + NGINX Benefits
The combination of NGINX and Apache offers the following advantages:
- Increased maximum number of simultaneous connections for a website
- Lower use of memory and CPU resources
- Faster load times for visitors who have a slower connection speed (GPRS, EDGE, 3G etc.)
