Node.js is an advanced, open-source, event-driven, I/O system meant for sites which support real-time interaction. Some examples of such sites are online browser-based game portals, web-based chat rooms or hotel booking portals. Node.js processes the info sent between the site and its users in small bits, which enhances the load speed and the overall performance of the site noticeably. If a certain form with three boxes should be filled out by a particular user, for instance, typically all three boxes should be filled and the entire content is then sent as one large hunk of information to the server. With Node.js, the first box’s content is processed as soon as it is entered, before the user writes anything in the second box. In this way, a lot more info can be processed much faster and more efficiently in contrast with any traditional system, which can have a great effect on the overall performance of the website. Node.js is already being used by many of the top IT companies such as Yahoo and Microsoft.

Node.js in Shared Hosting

All shared hosting plans offered by us support Node.js and you can add this innovative platform to your hosting account using the Add Services/Upgrades menu in your Hepsia hosting Control Panel. You’ll be able to pick the amount of instances for this upgrade, in other words how many different websites/platforms will use Node.js at once, and you can activate as many instances as you like. Hepsia will also enable you to select the path to your .js application and to decide if you’ll use a dedicated IP or the physical server’s shared one. Accessing Node.js will be possible through a random port chosen by our cloud platform. Also, you can stop or restart any instance that you’ve added, modify the location of the .js application or see the active instances’ output with only several clicks of the mouse from your web hosting Control Panel using a quite easy-to-navigate interface.

Node.js in Semi-dedicated Servers

With a semi-dedicated server from our company, you can use all the advantages that the Node.js event-driven platform offers, since it’s is included with all our semi-dedicated server packages and you can add it to your semi-dedicated account with several mouse clicks from the Hepsia website hosting Control Panel – the semi-dedicated server administration tool that’s included with each semi-dedicated server. In case you want to employ Node.js for multiple web-based apps, you can choose the amount of instances which the platform will use when you are adding this service to your semi-dedicated package. Then, you will have to indicate the path to the .js file in your semi-dedicated account for each instance. This can be done in the new menu that will appear in the Hepsia Control Panel after you add the upgrade and in the meantime, you can also select if the path to the particular application should go through a dedicated IP – in case you’ve got one, or through the physical server’s shared IP. Each instance that you add can be restarted or shut down separately and you can view your apps’ output with only a couple of mouse clicks.

Node.js in VPS Servers

Node.js is available with all Hepsia hosting Control Panel-equipped VPS web hosting plans that we are offering and you can activate it without experiencing any problem, even if you have never used it before, as the Hepsia Control Panel has an easy-to-navigate, point ‘n’ click GUI, which will permit you to do anything effortlessly. The platform can be used for as many Internet applications as you want, so you can make the most of your sites by mixing the power of our VPSs with the performance provided by the Node.js platform. You will have to indicate the directory path to the .js file in your VPS account and to choose if it will use a dedicated IP address or your VPS server’s shared IP and you’ll be all set. Accessing the file will be possible using a port that our system will generate randomly when you activate a new Node.js instance. The Hepsia Control Panel will grant you full control over all Node.js instances and, with only a click, you will be able to start, to delete or to restart them, as well as to view the output of each app that uses the platform.

Node.js in Dedicated Servers

You will be able to make use of the Node.js platform with your real-time, script-based apps at no additional charge in case you acquire one of our dedicated servers and select the Hepsia hosting Control Panel during the order procedure. The Node.js instances can be managed from the Hepsia Control Panel’s Node.js section through an easy-to-use GUI, which will allow you to start/delete/reboot any instance or to check the output of the application which uses it with just one click. Even if you are not very experienced, you’ll be able to make use of the Node.js platform, since all you have to do to set it up is insert the folder path to the .js file and select the IP address that will be used to access the latter – a shared or a dedicated IP. A random port will be designated automatically too and you’ll notice the benefits of running Node.js instantly. By combining Node.js with the power of our dedicated servers, you can make use of the full potential of your applications and to get the best conceivable performance.
