Node.js is a leading-edge event-driven system, which is used to develop scalable web applications. It is built with the Google V8 JavaScript engine and it processes HTTP requests and responses between a server and a huge number of online users more effectively than any traditional platform. What makes Node.js exceptional is the fact that in contrast to conventional platforms that process the info in giant hunks, it handles everything in tiny bits. For example, when a user has to fill in several fields on a website, Node.js processes the information in the first field as soon as it is inserted, utilizing the server processing time more efficiently. In contrast, other platforms wait for all the fields to be filled and while the info in them is being processed, requests from other users remain in the queue. The difference may be insignificant for a single person, but it truly does make a difference if a huge number of users are browsing a site simultaneously. A couple of instances of websites where Node.js can be applied are dinner booking portals, chat rooms or interactive browser-based game portals, i.e. sites that offer quick real-time communication.

Node.js in Shared Hosting

Since Node.js is present on our innovative cloud hosting platform, you’ll be able to add it to your shared hosting account and to use it for any web-based app that you’ve got, irrespective of which shared hosting package you’ve chosen during the registration process. The Upgrades section in the Hepsia hosting Control Panel, which comes with all web hosting accounts, will allow you to select the number of instances that you want to activate – this is the number of the web applications that will use Node.js. A few minutes afterwards, you will be able to specify the path to the app, i.e. where the .js file will be located in your hosting account, as well as to choose the IP to acquire access to the file – a dedicated IP address or the server’s shared IP. In the new Node.js menu that will appear in the Hepsia Control Panel, you’ll be able to restart an instance or to remove it if you don’t want it any longer. You’ll also acquire access to the output code with only a click.

Node.js in Semi-dedicated Hosting

If you acquire a semi-dedicated server package from us, you’ll be able to use the full potential of Node.js with any Internet app that you host on our cloud website hosting platform, as it is included with each and every semi-dedicated server package that we are offering. You can add 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 are expected to do after that will be to indicate the path to the .js file that will use Node.js within the account and to pick the IP address that will be used in order to access this file. You can select a dedicated IP if you’ve got one, or any of the physical server’s shared IPs. Our system will also specify a randomly generated port number. When you have the Node.js controls inside Hepsia, you’ll be able to view a given application’s output or to start/restart/discontinue any of the instances that you’ve added.

Node.js in VPS Web Hosting

Node.js comes with all Hepsia hosting Control Panel-managed Linux VPS web hosting packages offered by our company and you can configure it without any difficulty, even if you have never used it before, as Hepsia offers an intuitive, point-and-click GUI, which will allow you to do anything without effort. The platform can be used for as many script-based software apps as you want, so you can make the most of your web sites by mixing the power of our virtual machines with the performance that Node.js provides. You will have to define the directory path to the .js file within your VPS account and to select if it will use a dedicated IP address or your virtual server’s shared one and you’ll be all set. The file can be accessed using a port number that our system will assign randomly when you activate a new Node.js instance. The Hepsia Control Panel will give you complete control over all instances and, with just one mouse click, you will be able to start, to delete or to restart them, as well as to see the output of each app that uses the platform.

Node.js in Dedicated Servers Hosting

Node.js is available with all Linux dedicated servers hosting packages that are ordered with the Hepsia Control Panel, so you’ll be able to use the event-driven platform once your dedicated machine is assembled. As the Hepsia Control Panel is extremely easy to work with, you will be able to do that without experiencing any difficulty, even if you’ve never worked with Node.js before, as everything that you’ll need to do on your end is insert the location of the .js file that will use the Node.js platform and the IP that will be used to access the file. The latter can be a dedicated one or can be shared with other sites. You can create as many Node.js instances as you wish on our incredibly powerful servers and each of them can be controlled separately – you will be able to start, to restart or to stop it, to check the output of the app using it, etc. This can be done via the simple-to-work-with, point-and-click Hepsia Control Panel, so you can take advantage of the power of Node.js without efforts.
