imagemagik installation
Yes, the imagemagik installation steps are simple for a cPanel server. Before installing you must have an idea about imagemagik.
It’s simply an addon for your cPnel server that allows for image manipulation. ImageMagick® is a software suite to create, edit, compose, or convert bitmap images.
It can read and write images in a variety of formats (over 100) including DPX, EXR, GIF, JPEG, JPEG-2000, PDF, PNG, Postscript, SVG, and TIFF.
Use ImageMagick to resize, flip, mirror, rotate, distort, shear and transform images, adjust image colors, apply various special effects, or draw text, lines, polygons, ellipses and Bézier curves.

How to enable Varnish on cPanel server?
Enable Varnish on cPanel. Varnish is a caching technology. It is a web accelerator and also referred as HTTP accelerator or reverse HTTP proxy, which will significantly enhance the performance of your website.
Varnish cache is really fast thereby, speed up the delivery depending on your architecture.
It will enhance your website’s performance. Varnish stores a copy of the page which is served by the web server the first time a user visits the website. Next time, when the user requests for the same page, varnish will serve the copy instead of serving it from the web server.
While installing Imagemagick on a cloudlinux server, do we have to do step 1 and 2 mentioned above or just the step 3 (cagefsctl –addrpm ImageMagick) ?
