Node.js is an innovative event-driven system, which is used to develop scalable applications. It uses the Google V8 JavaScript engine and it processes requests and responses between a server and a large number of Internet users much more effectively than any conventional system. What makes Node.js exceptional is the fact that in difference between traditional systems that handle the info in large hunks, it processes everything in little bits. For instance, if a user has to fill in several fields on a website, Node.js handles the information in the first field once it is typed, utilizing the server’s processing capabilities more efficiently. In comparison, traditional systems wait for all the fields to be filled out and while the info in them is being processed, requests from other users stay in the queue. The difference may be negligible for a single user, but it certainly does make a difference if a large number of individuals are using a site at the very same time. A couple of examples of sites where Node.js can be used are dining reservation portals, web-based chat rooms or interactive browser game portals, in other words websites that need fast live interaction.
Node.js in Shared Web Hosting
You will be able to use Node.js with each shared web hosting package offered by us, as the event-driven platform is present on our cloud servers and can be added to an existing account with several clicks. After you sign into your Hepsia Control Panel, you will find Node.js under the Upgrades menu where you can choose the number of instances that you would like to get. One instance means that one application will use Node.js and you’ll be able to add as many instances to your hosting account as you need. A new menu will appear in the Hepsia Control Panel shortly after that and to start using Node.js, you will have to define the path to the .js file that will use the platform and to select if the connection will go through the shared IP of the physical server or via a dedicated IP. The controls inside the Hepsia Control Panel will also allow you to reboot or to suspend an instance and to view any given application’s output.
Node.js in Semi-dedicated Hosting
If you purchase a semi-dedicated server package through our company, you’ll be able to use the full capacity of Node.js with any app that you host on our cloud platform, as it’s included with each and every semi-dedicated package that we offer. You can specify the number of instances, or apps which can use Node.js, from the Hepsia Control Panel with which you can control your semi-dedicated account. The only things that you’re expected to do after that will be to enter the path within the account to the .js file that will use Node.js and to pick the IP address that will be used to access this file. You can select a dedicated IP address if you’ve got one, or any of the physical server’s shared IPs. Our system will also allocate a randomly generated port number. When you have the Node.js controls inside Hepsia, you’ll be able to check a given application’s output or to start/reboot/stop any of the instances that you’ve added.
Node.js in VPS Web Hosting
You can activate Node.js with each of the Linux VPS web hosting offered by us if you choose Hepsia as your Control Panel. The platform will have its very own section where you can configure it with a couple of clicks even if you don’t have any experience with such a software platform, since Hepsia is rather intuitive and simple to work with. All it takes to activate a new Node.js instance is to specify the directory path to the .js file that will use the Node.js platform and to select the IP that will be used to access it – a dedicated IP or your VPS’s shared IP address. A random access port will be designated automatically as well. There won’t be any limit on how many sites can use Node.js simultaneously, so you can use our virtual machines for a lot of sites and enjoy a splendid performance. Quick-access controls in the Hepsia Control Panel’s Node.js section will permit you to start, to shut down or to restart any instance separately and to check their output.
Node.js in Dedicated Servers Hosting
Node.js is included with all Linux dedicated servers hosting that are ordered with the Hepsia hosting Control Panel, so you will be able to make full use of the event-driven platform once your server is set up. As Hepsia is quite easy to work with, you will be able to make that without the need to deal with any obstacles, even if you haven’t worked with Node.js before, since everything that you’ll have to do on your end is enter the path to the .js file that will use the platform and the IP that will be used to access this file. The latter can be a dedicated one or can be shared with other Internet sites. You can run as many Node.js instances as you wish on our extremely powerful servers and each of them can be managed separately – you will be able to start, to reboot or to terminate it, to see the output of the app that uses it, etc. You can do this via the intuitive, point ‘n’ click Hepsia Control Panel, so you can take advantage of the power of Node.js without effort.
