Node.js is an avant-garde event-driven platform, which is used to set up scalable web applications. It is built with Google's V8 JavaScript Engine and it processes HTTP requests and responses between a server and an immense number of users much more efficiently than any other platform. What makes Node.js one of a kind is the fact that in contrast to traditional systems which handle the info in huge hunks, it processes everything in tiny bits. For instance, if a user has to fill out a couple of fields on a site, Node.js handles the info in the first field the moment it’s inserted, utilizing the server’s processing resources more effectively. In contrast, conventional systems wait for all the fields to be filled out and while the information from them is being processed, requests from other users remain in the queue. The difference may be insignificant for a single user, but it surely does make a difference when a huge number of individuals are navigating a site at the very same time. Several examples of Internet sites where Node.js can be used are dining booking portals, web-based chat rooms or interactive browser-based video game portals, in other words websites that need fast live interaction.
Node.js in Shared Website Hosting
All shared website hosting offered by our company support Node.js and you are able to add this avant-garde event-driven platform to your web hosting account using the Add Services/Upgrades menu in your Hepsia Control Panel. You’ll be able to select the amount of instances for this upgrade, in other words how many different platforms/websites will utilize Node.js simultaneously, and you can get as many instances as you want. Hepsia will also allow you to set the exact path to your .js application and to choose if you’ll use a dedicated IP address or the server’s shared one. Accessing Node.js will be possible through a randomly generated port specified by our cloud system. Furthermore, you can stop or restart any instance that you’ve added, edit the path to the .js application or check the active instances’ output with just a few clicks from your hosting Control Panel using an exceptionally intuitive GUI.
Node.js in Semi-dedicated Servers

This service is upgradeable, so in case you want to use Node.js for different web sites, you’ll be able to select the number of running instances, one instance being one application. Using Hepsia’s easy-to-use interface, you’ll have to indicate the path to the .js file for each instance and to choose whether Node.js will use a dedicated IP or the server’s shared one. Our cloud platform will allocate a randomly generated port to access your application and you’ll see it in the corresponding section of the Control Panel. The Hepsia Control Panel will also enable you to check the output of any of your applications or to stop/restart each instance separately.
Node.js in VPS Servers
You can use Node.js with each of the VPS servers offered by our company if you choose Hepsia as your hosting Control Panel. The 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, since Hepsia is extremely intuitive and easy to navigate. All it takes to start a new Node.js instance is to enter the directory 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. A random access port will be set automatically as well. There won’t be any constraints as to how many websites can use Node.js at the same time, so you can use our Virtual Private Servers for lots of sites and enjoy a splendid performance. Quick-access menus in the Node.js section of the Hepsia Control Panel will allow you to start, to cancel or to restart any instance independently and to see their output.
Node.js in Dedicated Servers

The Node.js instances can be managed from the Hepsia Control Panel’s Node.js section through a user-friendly graphical interface, which will permit you to start/stop/reboot any instance or to view the output of the application which uses it with only one click of the mouse. Even if you aren’t very experienced, you will be able to use the platform, since all you need to do to activate it is enter the folder path to the .js file and pick the IP that will be used to access the latter – a dedicated or a shared one. A randomly generated port will be designated automatically too and you’ll notice the upsides of running Node.js momentarily. By mixing Node.js with the power of our dedicated servers, you’ll be able to use the full capacity of your apps and to get the best achievable performance.
