Node.js is an avant-garde, event-driven non-blocking input/output system used for Internet sites which support live interaction. A few examples of such websites would be online browser video game portals, online chat rooms or hotel reservation portals. Node.js processes the info transmitted between the website and its visitors in small bits, which boosts the load speed and the overall performance of the website tremendously. When a given form with 3 boxes should be filled out by a specific user, for example, usually all three boxes should be filled out and the whole content is then sent as one huge chunk of information to the web server. With Node.js, the content in the first box is processed once it is entered, before the user writes anything in the second box. Thus, much more information can be processed much faster and more efficiently in comparison to any conventional system, which can exert a great impact on the performance of the site. Node.js is already being employed by some of the biggest IT companies such as Yahoo and Microsoft.

Node.js in Shared Hosting

Since Node.js is present on our advanced cloud hosting platform, you will be able to add it to your account and to use it for any web-based app that you’ve got, regardless of which shared hosting plan you have picked during the subscription process. The Upgrades section in the Hepsia hosting Control Panel, which comes bundled with all accounts, will allow you to select the number of instances that you’d like to activate – this is the number of the web apps that will use Node.js. A few minutes after that, you will be able to specify the path to the application, in other words the location of the .js file in your website hosting account, as well as to pick the IP to obtain access to the file – a dedicated IP or the physical server’s shared IP. In the new Node.js menu that will appear in the Control Panel, you’ll be able to restart an instance or to discontinue it in case you don’t need it any longer. You’ll also have access to the output code with only one click.

Node.js in Semi-dedicated Hosting

With a semi-dedicated server from our company, you can make use of all the benefits that the Node.js event-driven platform offers, because it’s is included with all our semi-dedicated packages and you can add it to your semi-dedicated account with several clicks of the mouse from the Hepsia hosting Control Panel – the account management tool that is included with each and every semi-dedicated server. In case you would like to use Node.js for multiple web apps, you can pick the amount of instances which the platform will use when you’re adding this feature to your semi-dedicated plan. After that, you’ll have to enter the location of the .js file in your account for each instance. You can do this in the new section that will show up in the Control Panel after you order the upgrade and during the process, you can also choose whether the path to the given app should go through a dedicated IP – if you have one, or through the physical server’s shared IP address. Each instance that you run can be restarted or discontinued independently and you can view the output of your applications with only a couple of mouse clicks.

Node.js in VPS

Node.js is available with all Hepsia hosting Control Panel-equipped Linux VPS packages that we are offering and you can activate it without encountering any difficulty, even if you have not worked with it before, because Hepsia offers an easy to work with, point & click interface, which will allow you to do anything without any effort. The platform can be used for as many script-based web apps as you want, so you can get the most out of your websites by combining the power of our servers with the performance offered by the Node.js platform. You’ll need to enter the folder path to the .js file within your account and to select whether it will use a dedicated IP address or your virtual server’s shared one and you will be all set. The file can be accessed using a port that our system will allocate randomly when you set up a new Node.js instance. Hepsia will give you full control over all instances and, with only one mouse click, you will be able to start, to cancel or to reboot them, as well as to view the output of each application that uses the Node.js platform.

Node.js in Dedicated Hosting

If you decide to purchase any of our Linux dedicated servers hosting packages for your script-driven web applications and if you pick the Hepsia Control Panel during the order procedure, you will be able to use Node.js at no additional cost, as the event-driven platform is integrated into our custom-built Control Panel tool. As our servers are extremely powerful, you’ll enjoy superb performance even if you make use of lots of Node.js instances at the same time. The configuration takes a few clicks and Hepsia’s GUI will make it exceptionally easy for you to set up a new instance even if you’ve got little or no prior experience. Inserting the .js file path and choosing a shared or a dedicated IP address will be everything that you’ll need to do on your end and as soon as our system has set a port to access the .js file, you will be all set. Any of the Node.js instances that you’ve created can be restarted or shut down separately and you’ll have access to an in-depth output log for each application that uses the Node.js platform.
