We install and manage a handful of plugins on every site to ensure that they are optimized to run on our systems. These plugins enhance the functionality of your sites and cannot be removed.

## Plugins included with every installation on our systems:

- [Akismet](http://wordpress.org/plugins/akismet/) – Akismet is a spam detection plugin.
- [Jetpack](http://wordpress.org/plugins/jetpack/) – Jetpack is a WordPress plugin that supercharges your self-hosted WordPress site with the awesome cloud power of WordPress.com.
- [object-cache.php](https://github.com/Automattic/wp-memcached/blob/master/object-cache.php) – This drop-in plugin extends WordPress’ Object Cache via [Memcached](https://www.php.net/manual/en/book.memcached.php).
- [advanced-cache.php](https://github.com/Automattic/batcache/blob/master/advanced-cache.php) – This drop-in plugin, more commonly referred to as [Batcache](https://pressable.com/knowledgebase/how-does-batcache-page-caching-work/), leverages our extended WordPress Object Cache to store and serve cached pages.
