Node.js is an event-driven runtime environment built with the Google V8 JavaScript engine. It’s used for scalable applications that require real-time interaction between a server and the Internet users and can significantly accelerate the overall performance of any website that uses it. Node.js is intended to handle HTTP requests and responses and incessantly supplies tiny bits of information. For instance, in case a new user fills a signup form, the second any info is inserted in one of the fields, it is sent to the server even if the rest of the boxes are not filled out and the user hasn’t clicked any button, so the information is handled a whole lot faster. In comparison, other systems wait for the entire form to be filled out and one sizeable chunk of information is then delivered to the server. Regardless of how tiny the difference in the processing speed may be, circumstances change when the site expands and there’re a lot of people using it at the same time. Node.js can be used by online reservation portals, real-time web browser games or online chat applications, for example, and plenty of companies, including LinkedIn, Yahoo and eBay, have already integrated it into their services.

Node.js in Shared Hosting

You can make use of Node.js with each and every shared hosting plan offered by us, since the platform is available on our cloud hosting servers and can be added to an active shared hosting account with a few clicks of the mouse. After you sign into your Hepsia hosting Control Panel, you will see Node.js in the Upgrades section where you can select how many instances you want to add. One instance means that one app will use Node.js and you will be able to add as many instances to your account as you want. A new menu 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 it and to select if the connection will go through the server’s shared IP or through a dedicated one. The controls inside the Hepsia Control Panel will also permit you to reboot or to shut down an instance and to view the output of any given application.

Node.js in Semi-dedicated Hosting

All our Linux semi-dedicated hosting include Node.js, so in case you would like to host any real-time app on our advanced cloud web hosting platform, you’ll be able to make full use of the power that Node.js can offer you with only several mouse clicks in your Hepsia hosting Control Panel. The feature is upgradeable, so in case you would like to use Node.js for different Internet sites, you will be able to choose the amount of active instances, one instance being one app. Using the Hepsia Control Panel’s simple-to-navigate graphical interface, you’ll have to enter the location of the .js file for every instance and to select if Node.js will use a dedicated IP address or the physical server’s shared IP. Our cloud platform will assign a randomly generated port to access your app and you will see it in the corresponding Control Panel section. The Hepsia Control Panel will also permit you to see the output of any of your apps or to shut down/restart each instance separately.

Node.js in VPS

All Linux VPS that are ordered with our custom-developed Hepsia Control Panel offer Node.js as standard and you can take full advantage of this platform for each script-based web app that you host on the Virtual Private Server. As we have not set any restriction as to how many Node.js instances you can add, you can take full advantage of the power of our VPSs and mix it with the full potential of the Node.js platform. The setup is done through the Hepsia Control Panel’s simple-to-navigate, point & click interface, so even if you aren’t tech-savvy, you will not have to cope with any difficulties while using the Node.js platform. You will just need to add the path in the VPS account to the .js file that will use Node.js and to choose whether it will use a shared or a dedicated IP. What’s more, our system will also choose a port number to access this file and you’ll be able to see it in the corresponding Control Panel section. With just one click of the mouse, you’ll be able to see your applications’ output and to shut down or to reboot any Node.js instance hosted on the server.

Node.js in Dedicated Hosting

Since our servers are amazingly powerful, you’ll get stunning performance even if you host multiple Node.js instances simultaneously. The configuration takes a few clicks and the Hepsia Control Panel’s user interface will make it really easy for you to create a new Node.js instance even if you have little or no prior experience. Adding the .js file path and selecting a dedicated or a shared IP will be everything that you will need to do on your end and as soon as our system has designated a port number to access this file, you will be all set. Any of the Node.js instances that you have created can be restarted or shut down independently and you will obtain access to an exhaustive output log for each of the apps that use the Node.js platform.
