Node.js is an innovative event-driven platform, which is used to build scalable Internet apps. It is built with Google's V8 JavaScript Engine and it handles requests and responses between a server and an immense number of online users much more effectively than any other system. What makes Node.js exceptional is the fact that in difference between traditional systems which process the information in sizeable chunks, it handles everything in tiny bits. For instance, in case a user has to fill in a couple of fields on a website, Node.js handles the info in the first field once it is entered, utilizing the server processing time more effectively. In contrast, conventional systems wait for all the fields to be filled out and while the info in them is being processed, requests from other users stay in the queue. The difference may be insignificant for a single person, but it really does make a difference when an immense number of individuals are visiting a site simultaneously. A few instances of Internet sites where Node.js can be applied are online dinner booking portals, live chat rooms or interactive browser-based video game portals, i.e. sites that offer fast real-time communication.

Node.js in Shared Website Hosting

All shared website hosting plans that we’re offering come with Node.js and you are able to add this avant-garde event-driven platform to your account via the Add Services/Upgrades link in your Hepsia hosting Control Panel. You can select the amount of instances for this particular upgrade, i.e. how many separate websites/platforms will utilize Node.js simultaneously, and you can add as many instances as you need. The Hepsia Control Panel will also enable you to select the path to your .js application and to decide if you will use a dedicated IP or the server’s shared one. Accessing Node.js will be possible through a random port allocated by our cloud platform. What’s more, you can stop or restart any instance that you’ve created, change the location of the .js application or see the output of the active instances with just a few clicks from your web hosting Control Panel using an exceptionally easy-to-navigate interface.

Node.js in Semi-dedicated Servers

If you purchase a semi-dedicated server plan from us, you will be able to use the full potential of Node.js with any web-based app that you host on our cloud web hosting platform, as it comes with each and every semi-dedicated plan that we’re offering. You can specify the number of instances, or applications which can use Node.js, via the Hepsia hosting Control Panel with which you can manage your semi-dedicated server. The only things that you’re expected to do after that will be to define the path to the .js file that will use Node.js within the account and to choose the IP that will be used in order to access that file. You can pick a dedicated IP in case you’ve got one, or any of the server’s shared IPs. Our system will also allocate a randomly generated port number. With the Node.js controls inside Hepsia, you are able to view the output of a given application or to start/restart/discontinue any of the instances that you have added.

Node.js in VPS Servers

Node.js is included by default with each and every VPS server that is ordered with the Hepsia web hosting Control Panel and involves no constraints regarding the number of Internet sites that can use it at any particular moment. This makes our VPS packages a perfect option for running multiple real-time web apps and for taking full advantage of them. The Hepsia Control Panel is user-friendly enough even for people without any previous experience, so if you want to enable Node.js for any app, it will not take more than several clicks to make this. You will simply need to specify the location of the .js file in question and to select whether Node.js will use the physical server’s shared IP or a dedicated one. Our system will also choose a particular port that will be used to access the .js file. After that, you’ll be all set and will be able to use the full potential of your real-time applications. Hepsia will enable you to view the applications’ output and to restart or to terminate any of your instances using fast-access controls.

Node.js in Dedicated Servers

You’ll be able to make use of the Node.js platform with your real-time, script-powered web apps at no extra cost if you get any of our dedicated web hosting plans and select the Hepsia hosting Control Panel on the order page. The Node.js instances can be administered from the Hepsia Control Panel’s Node.js section through a simple-to-use interface, which will allow you to start/stop/restart any Node.js instance or to check the output of the app which uses it with only one click. Even if you are not very tech-savvy, you’ll be able to make use of the platform, as all you need to do to set it up is add the location of the .js file and choose the IP address that will be used to access the file in question – a shared or a dedicated one. A random port number will be allocated automatically as well and you’ll notice the upsides of using Node.js immediately. By mixing the platform with the power of our dedicated servers, you will be able to make the most of the full potential of your applications and to get the best conceivable performance.
