What is EP?

Entry Processes (EP) is a metric that measures the number of simultaneous connections to your website that the server can handle at any given time. EP refers to the maximum number of concurrent connections that your website is allowed to have on the server.

Each web hosting plan is allocated a specific number of Entry Processes based on the hosting plan you have chosen. The number of EPs you need will depend on the amount of traffic your website receives and the number of concurrent connections it has.

It's important to monitor your EP usage and ensure that you have enough resources allocated to your website to ensure optimal performance. If your website exceeds its allotted EP resources, it may become unresponsive or even crash, which can result in a poor user experience for your visitors.

To avoid this, you can optimize your website by reducing the number of concurrent connections, optimizing your code, and minimizing the use of resource-intensive scripts or plugins. If your website continues to exceed its allotted EP resources, you may need to upgrade your hosting plan to one with more Entry Processes.
