Node.js is a leading-edge event-driven platform, which is used to build scalable applications. It’s built with Google's V8 JavaScript Engine and it handles HTTP requests and responses between a web server and an enormous number of online users more effectively than any traditional platform. What makes Node.js special is the fact that in contrast to traditional platforms which process the information in massive hunks, it processes everything in little bits. As an illustration, in case a user needs to fill a few fields on an Internet site, Node.js processes the information in the first field the second it is entered, utilizing the server’s processing resources more effectively. In contrast, other systems wait for all the fields to be filled out and while the information from them is being processed, requests from other users stay in the queue. The difference may be negligible for one single person, but it absolutely does make a difference if a large number of users are browsing a site at once. Several examples of Internet sites where Node.js can be used are dining booking portals, live chat rooms or interactive browser video game portals, in other words websites that support quick real-time interaction.

Node.js in Shared Hosting

All Linux shared packages that we’re offering include Node.js and you can add this leading-edge platform to your account using the Add Services/Upgrades link in your Hepsia hosting Control Panel. You’ll be able to choose the number of instances for this particular upgrade, in other words how many separate websites/platforms will make use of Node.js at once, and you can add as many instances as you wish. Hepsia will also permit you to set the exact location of your .js application and to select whether you’ll use a dedicated IP or the physical server’s shared one. Accessing Node.js will be possible using a randomly generated port number chosen by our cloud platform. What’s more, you can stop or reboot any instance that you’ve activated, change the location of the .js app or view the output of the active instances with only a couple of clicks of the mouse from your hosting Control Panel via a quite user-friendly interface.

Node.js in Semi-dedicated Hosting

If you purchase a semi-dedicated server package through us, you’ll be able to make use of the full capacity of Node.js with any web-based app that you host on our cloud hosting platform, as it is included with each and every package offered by our company. You can specify the number of instances, or apps that can use Node.js, through the Hepsia hosting Control Panel with which you can administer your semi-dedicated server. The only things that you will have to do after that will be to enter the path within the account to the .js file that will use Node.js and to pick the IP address that will be used to access that file. You can select a dedicated IP address if you have one, or any of the physical server’s shared IP addresses. Our platform will also set a randomly generated port number. Using the Node.js controls inside Hepsia, you will be able to view a given application’s output or to start/restart/stop any of the instances that you’ve created.

Node.js in VPS Hosting

You can make use of Node.js with each of the VPS hosting offered by our company in case you pick Hepsia as your Control Panel. The Node.js platform will have its own section where you can configure it with a couple of mouse clicks even if you have no experience with similar software, since Hepsia is incredibly intuitive and easy to work with. All it takes to activate a new Node.js instance is to insert the directory path to the .js file that will use the Node.js platform and to select the IP that will be used to access it – a dedicated IP or your Virtual Private Server’s shared IP address. A randomly generated access port will be set automatically too. There won’t be any constraints as to the number of the websites that can use Node.js at once, so you can use our virtual machines for many sites and enjoy a terrific overall performance. Quick-access controls in the Node.js section of the Hepsia hosting Control Panel will allow you to start, to remove or to restart any Node.js instance independently and to view their output.

Node.js in Dedicated Web Hosting

Node.js comes bundled with all dedicated web hosting that are ordered with the Hepsia Control Panel, so you will be able to use this platform once your dedicated machine is set up. As Hepsia is rather simple to work with, you will be able to make that without experiencing any difficulty, even if you’ve never used Node.js before, as everything that you’ll need to do on your end is specify the folder path to the .js file that will use Node.js and the IP that will be used to access the file. The latter can be a dedicated IP or can be shared with other sites. You can activate as many Node.js instances as you wish on our astonishingly powerful machines and each of them can be managed independently – you will be able to start, to restart or to stop it, to check the output of the application using it, etc. This can be done through the intuitive, point-and-click Hepsia Control Panel, so you can use the power of Node.js with no effort.
