Node.js
Learn more about the capabilities of the Node.js software tool and how it can be used to boost your web apps.
Node.js is a leading-edge, event-driven asynchronous I/O platform devised for websites that offer real-time interaction. Several examples of such sites are web-based browser game portals, web-based chat rooms or accommodation reservation portals. Node.js handles the info sent between the website and its users in small bits, which boosts the loading speed and the performance of the site substantially. When a given form with 3 boxes should be filled out by a user, for instance, typically all three boxes should be filled out and the entire content is then forwarded as one sizeable chunk of information to the web server. With Node.js, the first box’s content is processed once it is entered, before the user types anything in the second box. Thus, much more info can be processed much faster and more efficiently in comparison with any traditional platform, which can have a noticeable effect on the site’s overall performance. Node.js is already being used by many of the top IT firms such as Yahoo and Microsoft.

Node.js in Cloud Hosting
You will be able to use Node.js with every
cloud hosting package that we are offering, since the platform is available on our cloud servers and can be added to an active shared hosting account with a few clicks. When you log in to your Hepsia Control Panel, you’ll see Node.js in the Upgrades section where you can pick how many instances you wish to get. One instance means that one application will use the platform and you’ll be able to add as many instances to your website hosting account as you need. A new menu will show up in the Control Panel shortly after that and to begin using Node.js, you’ll need to include the path to the .js file that will use the platform and to decide if the connection will proceed through the shared IP address of the physical server or via a dedicated IP. The controls inside the Hepsia Control Panel will also enable you to restart or to deactivate an instance and to see the output of any given app.

Node.js in Semi-dedicated Servers
If you order a
semi-dedicated server package from our company, you’ll be able to use the full capacity of Node.js with any Internet app that you host on our cloud web hosting platform, due to the fact that it is available with each semi-dedicated hosting package that we offer. You can specify the number of instances, or applications that can use Node.js, via the Hepsia Control Panel with which you can administer your semi-dedicated server. The only things that you’re expected to do after that will be to insert the path within the account to the .js file that will use Node.js and to pick the IP address that will be used to access this file. You can pick a dedicated IP in case you’ve got one, or any of the server’s shared IP addresses. Our system will also choose a random port. With the Node.js controls inside Hepsia, you’ll be able to view the output of a given application or to start/restart/shut down any of the instances that you’ve added.

Node.js in Dedicated Servers
Node.js comes bundled with all
dedicated web hosting plans that are ordered with the Hepsia hosting Control Panel, so you’ll be able to make full use of the event-driven platform as soon as your physical machine is up and running. Since Hepsia is incredibly user-friendly, you will be able to make that without coming across any predicaments, even if you have never worked with the Node.js platform before, as everything that you’ll have to do on your end is insert the location of the .js file that will use Node.js and the IP that will be used to access this file. The latter can be a dedicated one or can be shared with other websites. You can manage as many instances as you like on our incredibly powerful dedicated machines and each of them can be controlled separately – you’ll be able to start, to reboot or to delete it, to view the output of the application using it, etc. You can do this via the user-friendly, point ‘n’ click Hepsia Control Panel, so you can take full advantage of the power of Node.js effortlessly.
