APC, or Alternative PHP Cache, is a PHP module that caches the output code of database-driven script apps. Dynamic PHP Internet sites hold their content inside a database which is accessed whenever a visitor opens a page. The content that has to be shown is retrieved and the code is parsed and compiled before it is delivered to the site visitor. These actions need some processing time and involve reading and writing on the server for each and every page that is loaded. While this can't be avoided for Internet sites with constantly changing content material, there're numerous Internet sites which present the very same content on a lot of of their webpages constantly - blogs, informational portals, hotel and restaurant sites, etc. APC is very useful for this kind of Internet sites since it caches the previously compiled code and shows it every time visitors browse the cached pages, so the code doesn't need to be parsed and compiled repeatedly. Not only will this greatly reduce the server load, but it'll also increase the speed of any Internet site many times.
