Node.js is an innovative, event-driven input/output system devised for websites which offer interactive communication. Several examples of such websites would be online browser video game portals, web-based chat rooms or accommodation booking portals. The platform handles the info transmitted between the website and its users in small bits, which enhances the speed and the overall performance of the site significantly. If a given form with 3 boxes is expected to be filled by a specific user, for example, typically all three boxes should be filled out and their entire content is then forwarded as one giant chunk of information to the web server. With Node.js, the first box’s content is processed the moment it is entered, before the user writes anything in the second box. Therefore, a lot more info can be handled much faster and more effectively in contrast to any conventional platform, which can have an enormous influence on the overall performance of the site. Node.js is already being used by many of the top IT companies like Yahoo and Microsoft.

Node.js in Shared Website Hosting

You will be able to use Node.js with each shared website hosting plan that we are offering, since the event-driven platform is available on our cloud servers and can be added to an active hosting account with several clicks. When you log into your Hepsia Control Panel, you will find Node.js under the Upgrades menu where you can pick the number of instances that you’d like to add. One instance means that one single application will use Node.js and you’ll be able to add as many instances to your web hosting account as you want. A new menu will appear in the Control Panel shortly after that and to begin using Node.js, you will need to enter the path to the .js file that will use it and to decide if the connection will proceed through the shared IP address of the server or via a dedicated one. The controls inside the Hepsia Control Panel will also allow you to reboot or to switch off an instance and to check the output of any given app.

Node.js in Semi-dedicated Servers

If you get a semi-dedicated server package from us, you’ll be able to make use of the full potential of Node.js with any Internet application that you host on our cloud web hosting platform, since it is available with each semi-dedicated hosting package that we are offering. You can indicate the number of instances, or apps that can use Node.js, from the Hepsia Control Panel with which you can control your account. The only things that you’ll have 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 in order to access this file. You can select a dedicated IP address in case you have one, or any of the physical server’s shared IPs. Our system will also choose a randomly generated port number. Using the Node.js controls inside Hepsia, you can see a given application’s output or to start/restart/delete any of the instances that you have activated.

Node.js in VPS Servers

You can use Node.js with each of the VPS plans that we offer if you choose Hepsia as your hosting Control Panel. The Node.js platform will have its own section where you can set it up with a couple of clicks of the mouse even if you don’t have any experience with such software, as Hepsia is truly intuitive and easy to work with. All it takes to add a new Node.js instance is to insert the directory path to the .js file that will use the Node.js platform and to choose the IP address that will be used to access it – a dedicated one or your VPS’s shared IP address. A random access port number will be designated automatically too. There won’t be any constraints on the number of the websites that can use Node.js at the same time, so you can use our virtual servers for a lot of sites and enjoy an excellent overall performance. Fast-access buttons in the Hepsia hosting Control Panel’s Node.js section will permit you to start, to remove or to reboot any Node.js instance independently and to check their output.

Node.js in Dedicated Servers

You’ll be able to use Node.js with your real-time, script-based web apps at no extra fee when you buy one of our dedicated web hosting plans and select the Hepsia Control Panel during the order procedure. The Node.js instances can be administered from the Hepsia Control Panel’s Node.js section through an easy-to-use graphical interface, which will enable you to start/deactivate/restart any instance or to see the output of the app which uses it with just one click. Even if you aren’t very experienced, you will be able to use the platform, since all you’ll have to do to set it up is enter the path to the .js file and pick the IP that will be used to access the latter – a shared or a dedicated one. A random port number will be set automatically as well and you will notice the benefits of running Node.js instantaneously. By combining the platform with the power of our dedicated servers, you will be able to make the most of the full capacity of your applications and to enjoy the best achievable performance.
