Node.js is an open-source, event-driven system, which uses the Google V8 JavaScript engine. It’s used for scalable web applications that require live communication between a server and the Internet users and can tremendously accelerate the performance of any Internet site that uses it. Node.js is designed to handle HTTP web requests and responses and ceaselessly delivers little amounts of info. For instance, if a new user fills out a subscription form, once any information is entered in any of the boxes, it is sent to the server even if the rest of the fields are not filled and the user hasn’t clicked on any button, so the info is processed a whole lot faster. In comparison, other platforms wait for the whole form to be filled out and one massive hunk of information is then delivered to the server. Regardless of how small the difference in the information processing time may be, things change when the Internet site grows bigger and there’re plenty of people using it at the same time. Node.js can be used by booking websites, interactive web browser games or instant messaging software, for instance, and numerous companies, including Yahoo, LinkedIn and eBay, have already included it in their services.
Node.js in Cloud Web Hosting
When you host an Internet application on our avant-garde cloud hosting platform and you would like to try Node.js, you’ll be able to add it to your web hosting account irrespective of the cloud web hosting package that you use. You can make this through the Upgrades menu in the Hepsia hosting Control Panel and you’ll be able to use Node.js in no more than a few minutes after you add this service to the account. You will be able to select how many instances you wish to add to the account – one instance means that one app will be using Node.js. In the new section that will appear in the Control Panel, you can type the path to the .js file in your web hosting account and choose whether that file will be accessible through the shared IP address of the physical server or via a dedicated one. Our system will also designate a port for the connection. You will be able to shut down or to restart each instance independently, in case it’s necessary.
Node.js in Semi-dedicated Hosting
You will be able to use Node.js for any real-time script-powered app running in a semi-dedicated server account, since the platform comes with all our semi-dedicated server hosting plans and you can set it up with just a couple of clicks of the mouse. If you’d like to use it for several sites, you can add more instances through the Hepsia Control Panel’s Upgrades section. The setup is as simple as indicating the location of your .js file and selecting whether the Node.js platform should use a dedicated IP address or any of the physical server’s shared ones, so you can take advantage of Node.js even if you’ve got no previous experience with such software. Our system will also assign a random port number which will be used to access the .js file for the given app. Hepsia has an intuitive interface that will permit you to reboot and to shut down any of your running instances, to activate new ones or to view your applications’ output with just one click.

Hepsia is user-friendly enough even for individuals with no previous experience, so if you would like to set up Node.js for any app, it won’t take more than a few clicks of the mouse to do it. You’ll just need to enter the location of the .js file in question and to select if Node.js will use the server’s shared IP address or a dedicated IP. Our platform will also assign a certain port that will be used to access the .js file. After that, you will be all set and will be able to take advantage of the full potential of your real-time apps. The Hepsia Control Panel will allow you to see the output of the applications and to restart or to deactivate any of your instances using quick-access controls.

The configuration takes several mouse clicks and Hepsia’s user interface will make it pretty easy for you to activate a new Node.js instance even if you’ve got little or no prior experience. Entering the path to the .js file and choosing a shared or a dedicated IP will be everything that you’ll have to do yourself and as soon as our system has designated a port number to access the .js file, you will be all set. Any of the Node.js instances that you have created can be rebooted or removed separately and you’ll acquire access to a detailed output log for each of the applications that use the Node.js platform.
