What it is

Why we chose LiteSpeed Web Server for our entire infrastructure

LiteSpeed Web Server (LSWS) is the enterprise web server that replaces Apache while retaining full compatibility (mod_rewrite, .htaccess, mod_security all work) — but with up to 9× higher performance. On all LimeNetwork plans — Linux, WordPress, Cloud, eCommerce, Power, Managed VPS — we chose LiteSpeed Enterprise as the default web server.

The real value comes when paired with the LSCache plugin, available free for WordPress, WooCommerce, Magento, PrestaShop, OpenCart, Joomla, Drupal. LSCache provides native server-level full-page caching (not at PHP level like WP-Rocket or W3 Total Cache), translating into millisecond response times even on WooCommerce stores with thousands of products.

LiteSpeed natively includes HTTP/3 with QUIC protocol, Brotli compression more efficient than gzip, on-the-fly image optimization, automatic lazy loading, ESI (Edge Side Includes) for partial caching on dynamic pages, Redis and Memcached integration. Everything active with no complex configuration: our servers are already tuned to get the maximum out of the stack.

Main features

What it does for you.

Up to 9× faster than Apache

Event-driven architecture instead of process-based: serves more requests with less RAM and CPU.

LSCache for WordPress

Free plugin that does server-level full-page caching. No more need for WP-Rocket.

Smart eCommerce cache

ESI lets you cache product pages even with a dynamic cart. WooCommerce flies.

HTTP/3 + QUIC

Modern transport protocol: reduced latency, multiplexing, faster recovery on lossy connections.

Brotli + gzip

Content compression up to 30% better than standard gzip, on by default.

Image Optimization

Automatic WebP/AVIF conversion and server-side lazy loading, no external plugins needed.

Built-in Object Cache

Redis + Memcached pre-configured. Repetitive MySQL queries no longer hit the database.

mod_security + WAF

Integrated Web Application Firewall. OWASP rules active, virtual patching against known CVEs.
