Node.js is a leading-edge, open-source, event-driven, asynchronous input/output system designed for Internet sites which support real-time communication. Several examples of such websites would be online browser video game portals, web-based chat rooms or accommodation booking portals. The platform processes the info sent between the website and its users in small bits, which enhances the loading speed and the performance of the site considerably. If a given form with three boxes should be filled by a particular user, for example, ordinarily all three boxes should be filled out and their entire content is then sent as one large hunk of information to the server. With Node.js, the content of the first box is processed the moment it is entered, before the user types anything in the second one. Therefore, a lot more info can be handled much faster and more effectively as opposed to any traditional system, which can exert a huge effect on the overall performance of the website. Node.js is already being employed by some of the largest IT firms like Yahoo and Microsoft.
Node.js in Cloud Web Hosting
When you host an Internet app on our cutting-edge cloud website hosting platform and you would like to try out Node.js, you’ll be able to add it to your web hosting account regardless of the cloud web hosting package that you are using. You can make this via the Upgrades menu in the Hepsia hosting Control Panel and you’ll be able to take advantage of Node.js in no more than a few minutes after you add this feature to your account. You’ll be able to choose the number of instances that you’d like to add to your account – one instance means one application using Node.js. In the new section that will appear in the Control Panel, you can indicate the path to the .js file in your hosting account and select if the file in question will be accessible through the shared IP of the physical server or through a dedicated one. Our platform will also allocate a port number for the connection. You’ll be able to deactivate or to restart each instance independently, in case it is necessary.

If you want to employ Node.js for different Internet applications, you can choose the number of instances that the platform will use when you’re adding this feature to your package. Then, you will need to enter the location of the .js file in your account for each instance. You can do this in the new menu that will show up in the Hepsia Control Panel after you add the upgrade and in the meantime, you can also select if the path to the given app will go through a dedicated IP – if you’ve got one, or through the server’s shared IP. Each instance that you run can be restarted or discontinued separately and you can view the output of your apps with just several clicks.
Node.js in VPS Servers

The Node.js platform will have its very own section where you can set it up with a few clicks of the mouse even if you do not have any experience with a similar software platform, as Hepsia is quite intuitive and easy to use. All it takes to add a new Node.js instance is to insert the folder path to the .js file that will use the platform and to choose the IP that will be used to access it – a dedicated one or your Virtual Private Server’s shared IP address. A randomly generated access port will be assigned automatically too. There won’t be any constraints on the number of the sites that can use Node.js simultaneously, so you can use our VPS servers for a lot of sites and enjoy a terrific overall performance. Fast-access buttons in the Node.js section of the Hepsia hosting Control Panel will permit you to start, to remove or to reboot any instance independently and to check their output.

The Node.js instances can be managed from the Node.js section of the Hepsia CP through an intuitive interface, which will permit you to start/stop/restart any instance or to view the output of the application which uses it with just one click. Even if you aren’t very experienced, you will be able to make use of the platform, as all you’ll have to do to set it up is define the path to the .js file and choose the IP that will be used to access the file in question – a dedicated or a shared one. A randomly generated port number will be set automatically as well and you’ll see the upsides of using Node.js momentarily. By combining the Node.js platform with the power of our dedicated servers, you can make the most of the full capacity of your apps and to get the best achievable performance.
