Redis Object Cache for WordPress is now available on all our shared and semi dedicated hosting accounts, through a dedicated Redis instance per account.
What Object Cache is
Object Cache stores the results of frequent database queries in RAM, so that WordPress does not need to query the database every time. This reduces loading time and database load, especially on sites with WooCommerce, many plugins or dynamic content. On an online shop, also see what applies to WooCommerce cart fragments, which cannot be served from cache.
What you need to do
Each cPanel account has its own independent Redis instance. Communication takes place over a Unix socket, which provides higher speed than a TCP connection and complete isolation between accounts.
If you use the LiteSpeed Cache for WordPress plugin, all you need to do is configure the Object Cache tab with the appropriate connection parameters. No action is required at cPanel or server level.
You will find the steps one by one in the detailed Knowledge Base guide, Enabling Redis Object Cache in LiteSpeed Cache for WordPress.
