At DreamHost, our team members around the world are focused every day on creating, developing, and improving our products, services, and infrastructure with a single goal in mind: your online success.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Your website\u2019s performance is critical to online success. That\u2019s why I\u2019m excited to announce that all new and existing DreamPress Pro websites will receive object caching at no additional cost!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Object Caching, Powered by Redis<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Object caching is a powerful feature that significantly improves the performance of your WordPress website by storing the results of database queries in your server’s memory. This allows your website to quickly retrieve this information instead of having to query the database every time a user visits your website. The end result is faster load times and a smoother browsing experience for your visitors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With the addition of object caching as a standard feature of our DreamPress Pro plans<\/a>, you\u2019ll notice the inclusion of the Redis Object Cache plugin in the WordPress admin dashboard. This provides the integration with the backend object cache system powered by Redis<\/a>. Our team has taken care of the complex backend integration, allowing you to enjoy the benefits of this feature without any additional hassle, configuration, or cost.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Each time someone visits an uncached page, WordPress must query the database for this information. Object caching keeps those results in memory making WordPress more responsive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
