Node.js
Why is Node.js so powerful? Why is it an excellent solution for your next web application?
Node.js is an innovative, event-driven asynchronous input/output platform built for Internet sites which support live communication. Some examples of such websites would be online browser-based video game portals, live chat rooms or hotel booking portals. The platform handles the info exchanged between the Internet site and its users in little bits, which enhances the loading speed and the performance of the website substantially. If a given form with 3 boxes is expected to be filled by a user, for example, usually all three boxes should be filled out and the entire content is then forwarded as one massive hunk of information to the web server. With Node.js, the first box’s content is processed as soon as it is inserted, before the user writes anything in the second box. In this way, much more info can be processed a lot faster and more efficiently compared to any traditional platform, which can exert a significant effect on the performance of the website. Node.js is already being employed by some of the largest IT corporations like Microsoft and Yahoo.

Node.js in Website Hosting
Since Node.js is available on our avant-garde cloud web hosting platform, you’ll be able to add it to your account and to utilize it for any web application that you have, irrespective of which
website hosting package you’ve selected upon signup. The Upgrades menu in the Hepsia Control Panel, which is included with all accounts, will permit you to choose the number of instances that you would like to run – this is the number of the web apps that will use Node.js. A couple of minutes afterwards, you will be able to indicate the path to the application, in other words the location of the .js file in your shared hosting account, as well as to pick the IP to get access to the file – a dedicated IP address or the server’s shared one. In the new Node.js menu that will appear in the Hepsia Control Panel, you will be able to restart an instance or to disable it if you do not want it anymore. You’ll also have access to the output code with only one click.

Node.js in VPS Hosting
Node.js is included by default with each
virtual private server that is ordered with the Hepsia web hosting Control Panel and imposes no limitations regarding the number of web sites that can use it at any particular time. This makes our VPS plans an ideal choice for building different real-time script-based web applications and for making the most of each of them. Hepsia is user-friendly enough even for persons with no previous experience, so if you wish to activate Node.js for any app, it won’t take more than several clicks to do it. You will only need to specify the folder path to the .js file in question and to choose whether Node.js will use the physical 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. Right after that, you will be all set and ready to use the full potential of your real-time applications. The Hepsia Control Panel will enable you to see the output of the applications and to restart or to shut down any of your instances using quick-access buttons.

Any of the instances that you’ve activated can be rebooted or removed independently and you’ll acquire access to an in-depth output log for each application that uses Node.js.
