Node.js is an avant-garde, event-driven I/O system devised for websites that support real-time communication. A few instances of such sites are online browser-based video game portals, web-based chat rooms or hotel reservation portals. Node.js handles the info sent between the website and its users in small bits, which enhances the speed and the performance of the website substantially. If a certain form with 3 boxes has to be filled out by a user, for example, usually all three boxes should be filled out and the entire content is then delivered as one huge hunk of information to the web server. With Node.js, the first box’s content is processed the moment it is inserted, before the user writes anything in the second one. Thus, a lot more information can be processed much faster and more efficiently compared to any conventional platform, which can have a substantial effect on the website’s overall performance. Node.js is already being used by some of the leading IT companies such as Microsoft and Yahoo.
Node.js in Shared Hosting
All Linux shared plans offered by us come with Node.js and you’ll be able to add this advanced platform to your shared web hosting account using the Add Services/Upgrades link in your Hepsia Control Panel. You will be able to pick the amount of instances for this particular upgrade, in other words how many different websites/platforms will utilize Node.js at the same time, and you can activate as many instances as you want. The Hepsia Control Panel will also enable you to specify the exact location of your .js application and to decide if you’ll use a dedicated IP or the physical server’s shared one. Accessing Node.js will be possible via a randomly generated port number chosen by our cloud platform. In addition, you can stop or restart any instance that you’ve created, modify the location of the .js app or view the output of the running instances with just several clicks of the mouse from your hosting Control Panel via an exceptionally user-friendly interface.
Node.js in Semi-dedicated Servers
If you obtain a semi-dedicated server package through our company, you will be able to make use of the full potential of Node.js with any Internet application that you host on our cloud website hosting platform, because it’s available with each semi-dedicated package offered by our company. You can specify the number of instances, or apps which can use Node.js, through the Hepsia hosting Control Panel with which you can manage your semi-dedicated account. The only things that you’ll have 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 that will be used to access this file. You can choose a dedicated IP address if you have one, or any of the server’s shared IP addresses. Our platform will also designate a randomly generated port number. With the Node.js controls inside Hepsia, you will be able to check the output of a given app or to start/reboot/remove any of the instances that you’ve activated.
Node.js in VPS Servers
Node.js comes bundled with all Hepsia hosting Control Panel-equipped Linux VPS hosting plans that we offer and you can activate it without having to cope with any problem, even if you have not used it beforehand, because the Hepsia Control Panel offers an easy-to-use, point ‘n’ click interface, which will allow you to do anything without effort. The platform can be used for as many apps as you need, so you can get the most out of your websites by mixing the power of our Virtual Private Servers with the performance provided by Node.js. You’ll have to include the directory path to the .js file within your account and to choose whether it will use a dedicated IP or your VPS server’s shared IP and you will be all set. The file can be accessed using a port that our system will set randomly when you add a new Node.js instance. Hepsia will give you full control over all Node.js instances and, with only one mouse click, you’ll be able to start, to terminate or to restart them, as well as to see the output of each application that uses the Node.js platform.
Node.js in Dedicated Servers
You will be able to use the Node.js platform with your real-time, script-powered web apps at no extra fee if you buy one of our Linux dedicated web hosting plans and choose the Hepsia hosting Control Panel during the order procedure. The Node.js instances can be administered from the Hepsia Control Panel’s Node.js section through a simple-to-use graphical interface, which will permit you to start/terminate/reboot any instance or to view the output of the app that uses it with only one mouse click. Even if you aren’t very experienced, you will be able to use the Node.js platform, since all you need to do to activate it is enter the location of the .js file and choose the IP that will be used to access the file in question – a dedicated or a shared IP. A randomly generated port will be selected automatically too and you will notice the benefits of using Node.js immediately. By mixing the Node.js platform with the power of our dedicated servers, you’ll be able to make use of the full potential of your applications and to get the best conceivable performance.
