Node.js is an open-source, event-driven runtime system, which uses Google's V8 JavaScript Engine. It’s used for scalable web applications that require live interaction between a server and the online users and can considerably accelerate the performance of any Internet site that’s using it. Node.js is designed to process HTTP requests and responses and ceaselessly delivers little bits of information. For instance, in case a new user fills out a registration form, once any info is entered in any of the fields, it’s sent to the server even if the rest of the fields are not filled and the user has not clicked on any button, so the info is handled a whole lot faster. In comparison, conventional platforms wait for the whole form to be filled and one big chunk of information is then delivered to the server. Regardless of how little the difference in the information processing time may be, things change if the Internet site expands and there’re plenty of individuals using it simultaneously. Node.js can be used by booking portals, real-time browser games or instant messengers, for example, and plenty of companies, among them Yahoo, LinkedIn and eBay, have already integrated it into their services.

Node.js in Website Hosting

You can use Node.js with each and every website hosting package that we are offering, as the platform is present on our cloud hosting servers and can be added to an active web hosting account with a couple of clicks. When you log into your Hepsia hosting Control Panel, you’ll find Node.js under the Upgrades menu where you can pick the number of instances that you would like to get. One instance means that one single app will use the platform and you’ll be able to add as many instances to your account as you wish. A new section will appear in the Hepsia Control Panel shortly afterwards and to begin using Node.js, you will have to insert the path to the .js file that will use the platform and to select whether the connection will proceed through the physical server’s shared IP address or via a dedicated IP. The controls inside the Hepsia Control Panel will also enable you to reboot or to switch off an instance and to check the output of any given application.

Node.js in Semi-dedicated Hosting

With a semi-dedicated server from our company, you can make use of all the advantages that the Node.js event-driven platform has, since it is is included with all our semi-dedicated server packages and you’re able to add it to your account with a few clicks of the mouse from the Hepsia web hosting Control Panel – the semi-dedicated account management tool that is included with every semi-dedicated server. If you would like to use Node.js for multiple web-based applications, you can select the amount of instances that the platform will use when you are adding this service to your semi-dedicated package. Then, you will need to enter the location of the .js file in your semi-dedicated account for each instance. This can be done in the new section that will show up in the Control Panel after you order the upgrade and in the meantime, you can also select if the path to the given application should go through a dedicated IP – if you’ve got one, or through the server’s shared IP. Each instance that you add can be restarted or terminated separately and you can view your apps’ output with only a couple of clicks.

Node.js in VPS Hosting

You can activate Node.js with each of the Linux VPS hosting that we are offering if you choose Hepsia as your Control Panel. The platform will have its very own section where you can set it up with several clicks of the mouse even if you have no experience with a similar software platform, as Hepsia is amazingly intuitive and user-friendly. All it takes to activate a new Node.js instance is to specify the folder path to the .js file that will use the Node.js platform and to select the IP address that will be used to access it – a dedicated one or your Virtual Private Server’s shared IP. A randomly generated access port number will be allocated automatically as well. There won’t be any limit as to how many websites can use Node.js at once, so you can use our virtual machines for multiple websites and enjoy a fabulous performance. Quick-access controls in the Node.js section of the Hepsia hosting Control Panel will enable you to start, to stop or to restart any Node.js instance separately and to view their output.

Node.js in Dedicated Web Hosting

You’ll be able to use the Node.js platform with your real-time, script-based web apps at no additional fee if you get any of our dedicated web hosting and choose the Hepsia Control Panel on the order page. The Node.js instances can be managed from the Node.js section of the Hepsia Control Panel via an easy-to-work-with graphical interface, which will enable you to start/deactivate/restart any Node.js instance or to check the output of the app that uses it with just one click of the mouse. Even if you aren’t very tech-savvy, you’ll be able to use the Node.js platform, as all you need to do to activate it is insert the path to the .js file and select the IP address that will be used to access the file in question – a dedicated or a shared IP. A random port number will be allocated automatically too and you’ll see the benefits of running Node.js immediately. By mixing Node.js with the power of our dedicated servers, you’ll be able to make the most of the full potential of your applications and to get the best achievable performance.
