Advanced Features
The Advanced tab gives you fast access to an array of advanced features, among them the Memcached memory caching system and the Varnish Cache web application accelerator, which will help you optimize your web sites and apps without needing to move away from the Control Panel. Depending on the web hosting package, these tools are either included by default or are offered in the form of easily gettable upgrades. InnoDB and NodeJS support is available too.
Varnish
Varnish Cache is a web application accelerator also referred to as a caching HTTP reverse proxy. You can install it in front of any server that speaks the HTTP protocol and configure it to cache the content. Varnish Cache is really, really fast and will make your site load much faster. One of the main features of Varnish Cache is the flexibility of its configuration language, VCL, which allows you to choose how incoming requests should be tackled.
Memcached
Memcached is a general-purpose distributed memory caching system for increasing the loading speed of dynamic database-powered websites. It is used to reduce the number of times an external data source (such as a DB or API) is read by caching data and objects in RAM. The Memcached distributed memory object caching system uses a client'server architecture. The Memcached distributed memory caching system is used by some of the most traffic-heavy websites on the web and is supported by popular Content Management Systems like Joomla and WordPress.
Node.js
Node.js is a platform for building highly scalable Internet apps. Built on Chrome's JavaScript runtime, Node.js uses an event-based, asynchronous input/output model that makes it lightweight and effective, suitable for real-time data-heavy apps. Node.js uses Google's V8 JavaScript engine, libUV, and a number of in-built libraries.
InnoDB
InnoDB is the default database engine for the MySQL open-source database management system. A storage engine is the main software component that a database management system uses to create, read, modify and delete data from a database. The latest version of InnoDB offers significant improvements in efficiency, security and usability. InnoDB offers the standard ACID transaction attributes, as well as declarative referential integrity support. InnoDB is included by default in most binary distributions from MySQL AB.
