Node.js is an innovative, open-source, event-driven, input/output system built for Internet sites that offer interactive communication. Some instances of such websites would be web-based browser video game portals, web-based chat rooms or hotel reservation portals. Node.js handles the information exchanged between the website and its users in tiny bits, which improves the loading speed and the overall performance of the site noticeably. If a certain form with three boxes should be filled out by a specific user, for example, typically all three boxes should be filled and the entire content is then sent as one huge hunk of information to the server. With Node.js, the content in the first box is processed the second it is inserted, before the user writes anything in the second one. Thus, much more info can be handled a lot faster and more effectively in contrast with any traditional system, which can exert a tremendous effect on the performance of the website. Node.js is already being used by many of the biggest IT corporations like Yahoo and Microsoft.

Node.js in Shared Hosting

You can take advantage of Node.js with every shared hosting package offered by us, as the event-driven platform is available on our cloud servers and can be added to an existing account with a couple of mouse clicks. When you log into your Hepsia hosting Control Panel, you’ll find Node.js under the Upgrades menu where you can select the number of instances that you would like to get. One instance means that one single application will use Node.js and you will be able to add as many instances to your web hosting account as you like. A new section will appear in the Hepsia Control Panel soon after that and to begin using Node.js, you’ll have to include the path to the .js file that will use the platform and to decide whether the connection should go through the server’s shared IP or through a dedicated one. The controls inside Hepsia will also permit you to reboot or to stop an instance and to view any given application’s output.

Node.js in Semi-dedicated Hosting

If you obtain a semi-dedicated server package through us, you will be able to make use of the full capacity of Node.js with any application that you host on our cloud platform, because it’s included with each semi-dedicated plan offered by our company. You can specify the number of instances, or applications which can use Node.js, through the Hepsia Control Panel with which you can administer your account. The only things that you will need to do after that will be to insert the path to the .js file that will use Node.js within the account and to choose the IP that will be used in order to access this file. You can pick a dedicated IP if you have one, or any of the server’s shared IPs. Our platform will also set a random port. When you have the Node.js controls inside the Hepsia Control Panel, you’re able to see the output of a given application or to start/reboot/discontinue any of the instances that you’ve activated.

Node.js in VPS

You can take advantage of Node.js with any of the Linux VPS offered by us if you choose Hepsia as your hosting Control Panel. The Node.js platform will have its own section where you can configure it with several clicks of the mouse even if you’ve got no experience with a similar software platform, since Hepsia is exceptionally intuitive and simple to use. All it takes to activate a new Node.js instance is to include 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 address. A random access port number will be set automatically too. There won’t be any limit on how many sites can use Node.js simultaneously, so you can use our virtual servers for many sites and enjoy a wonderful overall performance. Fast-access controls in the Node.js section of the Hepsia hosting Control Panel will permit you to start, to cancel or to restart any instance separately and to view their output.

Node.js in Dedicated Hosting

Node.js comes bundled with all Linux dedicated hosting on which our in-house developed Hepsia hosting Control Panel is installed. The latter offers a very simple and easy-to-use graphical interface, so even if you haven’t used Node.js before, you will be able to unleash its true potential in just a few easy steps. As soon as you have uploaded the application’s content, you’ll need to define the folder path to the given .js files that will use the Node.js platform and to choose the IP address that they will use (shared or dedicated), while our system will specify a random port number that will be used to access these files. There isn’t any limit as to the total number of Node.js instances that you can enable and use simultaneously and you’ll have complete command over them from the Hepsia Control Panel – you will be able to add new ones or to deactivate/restart existing ones, to revise the output log for each app, and many others.
