Node.js is a cutting-edge, event-driven asynchronous input/output platform intended for websites that support live communication. A few examples of such websites are online browser game portals, live chat rooms or hotel booking portals. The platform processes the info exchanged between the Internet site and its users in small bits, which boosts the load speed and the overall performance of the site substantially. If some form with three boxes has to be filled by a particular user, for instance, normally all three boxes should be filled and the whole content is then delivered as one giant hunk of information to the server. With Node.js, the first box’s content is processed the second it is inserted, before the user writes anything in the second one. In this way, a lot more information can be processed a lot faster and more effectively compared with any traditional system, which can exert a huge influence on the website’s overall performance. Node.js is already being used by some of the top IT firms like Yahoo and Microsoft.
Node.js in Website Hosting
All website hosting offered by our company support Node.js and you will be able to add this avant-garde event-driven platform to your shared web hosting account using the Add Services/Upgrades menu in your Hepsia Control Panel. You will be able to pick the amount of instances for this upgrade, i.e. how many different platforms/websites will use Node.js at the same time, and you can order as many instances as you need. Hepsia will also permit you to set the precise location of your .js application and to choose if you will use a dedicated IP or the server’s shared one. Accessing Node.js will be possible using a randomly generated port number assigned by our cloud hosting platform. Furthermore, you can stop or restart any instance that you have added, change the location of the .js app or view the running instances’ output with only several mouse clicks from your hosting Control Panel using a rather easy-to-use graphical interface.
Node.js in Semi-dedicated Servers
With a semi-dedicated server from our company, you can make use of all the benefits that the Node.js event-driven platform offers, since it is is included with all our packages and you are able to add it to your semi-dedicated account with a few clicks from the Hepsia website hosting Control Panel – the semi-dedicated server administration tool that comes bundled with each semi-dedicated server. If you’d like to use Node.js for different web-based apps, you can choose the amount of instances that the platform will use when you are adding this feature to your semi-dedicated plan. Then, you’ll have to specify the location of the .js file in your account for each instance. You can do this in the new section that will show up in the Control Panel after you add the upgrade and during the process, you can also choose if the access path to the given application should go through a dedicated IP address – in case you’ve got one, or through the physical server’s shared IP. Each instance that you order can be rebooted or discontinued independently and you can view your apps’ output with only a couple of mouse clicks.
Node.js in VPS Servers
Node.js is included as standard with each VPS server that comes with the Hepsia website hosting Control Panel and imposes no constraints with regard to the number of Internet sites that can use it at any particular time. This makes our VPS plans an excellent solution for administering multiple real-time web apps and for making the most of each of them. Hepsia is user-friendly enough even for people without any previous experience, so if you’d like to set up Node.js for any app, it will not take more than a couple of mouse clicks to make this. You’ll only need to add the folder path to the specific .js file and to choose whether Node.js will use the server’s shared IP address or a dedicated IP. Our system will also specify a particular port that will be used to access the .js file. Right after that, you will be all set and ready to use the full potential of your real-time apps. The Hepsia Control Panel will allow you to see the apps’ output and to restart or to remove any of your instances using fast-access controls.
Node.js in Dedicated Servers
You will be able to use Node.js with your real-time, script-based web applications at no additional charge if you purchase one of our dedicated web hosting plans and select the Hepsia Control Panel on the order page. The Node.js instances can be managed from the Hepsia Control Panel’s Node.js section through an intuitive interface, which will permit you to start/deactivate/restart any Node.js instance or to see the output of the app which uses it with just one click of the mouse. Even if you are not very tech-savvy, you’ll be able to make use of the Node.js platform, since all you have to do to set it up is enter the folder path to the .js file and choose the IP address that will be used to access the file in question – a shared or a dedicated one. A random port will be allocated automatically as well and you will notice the benefits of running Node.js straight away. By mixing the platform with the power of our dedicated servers, you’ll be able to take advantage of the full potential of your applications and to enjoy the best conceivable performance.
