Node.js is a leading-edge event-driven system, which is used to set up scalable web applications. It is built with the Google V8 JavaScript engine and it handles requests and responses between a server and an enormous number of users more efficiently than any other platform. What makes Node.js special is the fact that in contrast to traditional platforms that process the info in giant hunks, it processes everything in small bits. For example, in case a user needs to fill in several fields on a website, Node.js processes the info from the first field the second it’s typed, utilizing the server’s processing resources more efficiently. In comparison, conventional systems wait for all the fields to be filled and while the information from them is being processed, requests from other users stay in the queue. The difference may be insignificant for a single person, but it actually does make a difference when an enormous number of users are visiting a site simultaneously. A few examples of websites where Node.js can be applied are dinner reservation portals, chat rooms or interactive browser game portals, i.e. sites that offer quick real-time interaction.

Node.js in Hosting

All hosting that we are offering include Node.js and you will be able to add this avant-garde platform to your web hosting account using the Add Services/Upgrades menu in your Hepsia Control Panel. You will be able to pick the number of instances for this particular upgrade, in other words how many different platforms/sites will utilize Node.js at once, and you can order as many instances as you need. The Hepsia Control Panel will also enable you to set the path to your .js app and to select if you’ll use a dedicated IP address or the physical server’s shared one. Accessing Node.js will be possible via a random port chosen by our cloud platform. In addition, you can stop or reboot any instance that you’ve added, edit the path to the .js app or view the output of the running instances with only several clicks from your web hosting Control Panel using a very user-friendly GUI.

Node.js in Semi-dedicated Servers

If you order a semi-dedicated server package from us, you will be able to take advantage of the full potential of Node.js with any web application that you host on our cloud hosting platform, as it is included with each semi-dedicated package that we are offering. You can specify the number of instances, or applications which can use Node.js, through the Hepsia Control Panel with which you can control your semi-dedicated server. The only things that you’re expected to do after that will be to add the path to the .js file that will use Node.js within the account and to pick the IP that will be used to access this file. You can choose a dedicated IP address if you have one, or any of the physical server’s shared IPs. Our platform will also assign a random port. With the Node.js controls inside Hepsia, you are able to check the output of a given app or to start/reboot/deactivate any of the instances that you’ve added.

Node.js in VPS Servers

All Linux VPS servers that are ordered with our tailor-made Hepsia hosting Control Panel come with Node.js as standard and you can take full advantage of this platform for each app that you run on the VPS. Since we have not put any limit as to how many instances you can get, you can use the power of our servers and mix it with the full capacity of the Node.js platform. The setup is done via the Hepsia Control Panel’s user-friendly, point ‘n’ click graphical interface, so even if you are not tech-savvy, you will not have to deal with any difficulties while working with the Node.js platform. You’ll just need to include the directory path in the account to the .js file that will use Node.js and to choose if it will use a shared or a dedicated IP. In addition, our system will also choose a port number to access this file and you’ll be able to find it in the respective Control Panel section. With only one click of the mouse, you’ll be able to see the output of your applications and to stop or to reboot any instance hosted on the Virtual Private Server.

Node.js in Dedicated Servers

Node.js is available with all Linux dedicated service on which our in-house built Hepsia Control Panel is installed. The latter has a rather intuitive and easy-to-navigate graphical interface, so even if you haven’t used the Node.js platform before, you’ll be able to unveil its true potential in only a few simple steps. Once you’ve uploaded the application’s content, you’ll have to add the path to the given .js files that will use Node.js and to choose the IP which they’ll use (dedicated or shared), whereas our system will choose a random port that will be used to access the files in question. There’s no limitation on the total amount of Node.js instances that you can create and run simultaneously and you will have full control over them via the Hepsia Control Panel – you will be able to set up new ones or to delete/reboot existing ones, to view the output log for each app, etc.
