Node.js
Find out more about the capabilities of the Node.js software instrument and how it could be used to boost your web apps.
Node.js is an avant-garde event-driven platform, which is used to set up scalable web applications. It is built with Google's V8 JavaScript Engine and it handles requests and responses between a server and a huge number of Internet users more efficiently than any other platform. What makes Node.js special is the fact that in contrast to traditional platforms which process the info in large hunks, it handles everything in tiny bits. For instance, in case a user needs to fill a couple of fields on a site, Node.js handles the info in the first field once it’s inserted, utilizing the server processing time more efficiently. In comparison, conventional platforms wait for all the fields to be filled and while the info from them is being processed, requests from other users stay in the queue. The difference may be negligible for a single user, but it certainly does make a difference if an immense number of people are visiting a website simultaneously. Several instances of websites where Node.js can be employed are online dinner booking portals, online chat rooms or interactive browser game portals, in other words sites that support quick real-time interaction.

Node.js in Shared Hosting
All
Linux shared hosting packages that we’re offering come with Node.js and you’re able to add this advanced event-driven platform to your shared account using the Add Services/Upgrades menu in your Hepsia hosting Control Panel. You will be able to select the amount of instances for this specific upgrade, i.e. how many separate websites/platforms will make use of Node.js simultaneously, and you can run as many instances as you wish. Hepsia will also permit you to set the exact path to your .js application and to decide whether you will use a dedicated IP or the physical server’s shared one. Accessing Node.js will be possible through a random port number selected by our cloud system. Also, you can stop or restart any instance that you’ve added, change the path to the .js application or see the active instances’ output with only several clicks of the mouse from your hosting Control Panel via a rather simple-to-navigate graphical interface.

The only things that you’ll need do after that will be to add the path within the account to the .js file that will use Node.js and to select the IP that will be used in order to access this file. You can select a dedicated IP if you have one, or any of the physical server’s shared IP addresses. Our platform will also specify a random port number.
