    How Varnish Accelerates Magento

    Without caching, every Magento page request triggers full PHP execution and database queries. Varnish stores rendered HTML in memory, serving repeat visitors instantly. It's a core part of our Magento 2 hosting UK platform alongside Redis, OpenSearch, and Sentinel security.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    No. We deploy Varnish with Magento's official VCL files pre-configured. Cache purging integrates automatically with Magento's cache management system. Just use the standard "Flush Magento Cache" buttons in admin.

    No, and that's intentional. Varnish only caches public, non-personalised pages. Checkout, customer accounts, and cart pages bypass cache entirely, ensuring session data remains private and accurate.

    Varnish doesn't handle SSL directly. Nginx sits in front as an SSL termination proxy, decrypting HTTPS requests before forwarding to Varnish. This architecture provides both security and performance.

    Yes. You can flush Varnish cache from Magento Admin (System → Cache Management), via CLI (bin/magento cache:flush full_page), or by contacting support for a full purge. We also provide SSH access for advanced users.
