Node.js is a leading-edge event-driven system, which is used to create scalable Internet apps. It uses the Google V8 JavaScript engine and it handles HTTP requests and responses between a server and an enormous number of online users more efficiently than any conventional platform. What makes Node.js one of a kind is the fact that in contrast to traditional systems that handle the info in large hunks, it processes everything in small bits. For example, when a user has to fill in a couple of fields on a website, Node.js handles the info in the first field the moment it is inserted, utilizing the server’s processing capabilities more efficiently. In contrast, conventional platforms wait for all the fields to be filled out and while the info in them is being processed, requests from other users remain in the queue. The difference may be negligible for a single user, but it undoubtedly does make a difference if an immense number of users are visiting a site all at once. A couple of examples of websites where Node.js can be employed are dinner booking portals, web-based chat rooms or interactive browser game portals, in other words sites that need quick live interaction.
Node.js in Shared Web Hosting
You will be able to make use of Node.js with each shared web hosting plan offered by us, since the event-driven platform is present on our cloud servers and can be added to an active shared web hosting account with a couple of clicks of the mouse. After you log into your Hepsia hosting Control Panel, you’ll see Node.js under the Upgrades menu where you can choose the number of instances that you wish to add. One instance means that one single app will use the platform and you will be able to add as many instances to your account as you wish. A new section will show up in the Control Panel shortly after that and to begin using Node.js, you’ll need to indicate the path to the .js file that will use it and to decide whether the connection will go through the shared IP address of the server or via a dedicated one. The controls inside Hepsia will also enable you to restart or to delete an instance and to view the output of any given app.
Node.js in Semi-dedicated Servers
If you purchase a semi-dedicated server plan from us, you will be able to take advantage of the full capacity of Node.js with any application that you host on our cloud website hosting platform, due to the fact that it is included with each semi-dedicated plan that we are offering. You can indicate the number of instances, or applications that can use Node.js, through the Hepsia hosting Control Panel with which you can administer your semi-dedicated server. The only things that you’ll need do after that will be to add the path to the .js file that will use Node.js within the account and to choose the IP that will be used to access that file. You can choose a dedicated IP in case you have one, or any of the server’s shared IPs. Our system will also specify a randomly generated port number. When you have the Node.js controls inside Hepsia, you are able to view a given app’s output or to start/restart/discontinue any of the instances that you’ve created.
Node.js in VPS Servers
You can run Node.js with each of the Linux VPS plans offered by us in case you pick Hepsia as your Control Panel. The Node.js platform will have its own section where you can set it up with several mouse clicks even if you do not have any experience with such software, since Hepsia is quite intuitive and easy to work with. All it takes to start a new Node.js instance is to include the directory path to the .js file that will use the platform and to choose the IP address that will be used to access it – a dedicated one or your Virtual Private Server’s shared IP address. A randomly generated access port number will be assigned automatically as well. There won’t be any restrictions as to how many websites can use Node.js simultaneously, so you can use our Virtual Private Servers for lots of sites and enjoy an impressive performance. Fast-access menus in the Node.js section of the Hepsia Control Panel will enable you to start, to discontinue or to reboot any instance separately and to check their output.
Node.js in Dedicated Servers
Node.js is offered with all Linux dedicated web hosting plans that are ordered with the Hepsia hosting Control Panel, so you’ll be able to make the most of the event-driven platform once your server is up and running. Since Hepsia is quite easy to work with, you will be able to make that without coming across any predicaments, even if you’ve never worked with Node.js before, as everything that you will have to do on your end is include the folder path to the .js file that will use Node.js and the IP address that will be used to access the file. The latter can be a dedicated one or can be shared with other Internet sites. You can manage as many Node.js instances as you want on our astonishingly powerful servers and each instance can be controlled separately – you’ll be able to start, to reboot or to terminate it, to view the output of the app that uses it, etc. This can be done through the intuitive, point-and-click Hepsia Control Panel, so you can make the most of the power of Node.js with ease.
