Node.js is an advanced, open-source, event-driven, non-blocking I/O system devised for sites that offer live interaction. Several instances of such websites would be online browser-based game portals, web-based chat rooms or hotel reservation portals. The platform handles the info exchanged between the site and its visitors in little bits, which improves the loading speed and the performance of the site substantially. When a certain form with 3 boxes should be filled out by a user, for instance, typically all three boxes should be filled and the whole content is then forwarded as one massive hunk of information to the server. With Node.js, the content in the first box is processed once it is entered, before the user types anything in the second one. Therefore, a lot more information can be handled much faster and more efficiently in comparison to any traditional system, which can have a substantial impact on the performance of the website. Node.js is already being employed by many of the largest IT corporations such as Microsoft and Yahoo.
Node.js in Cloud Hosting
You can make use of Node.js with each cloud hosting plan offered by us, as the platform is available on our cloud hosting servers and can be added to an active account with a couple of mouse clicks. After you sign in to your Hepsia hosting Control Panel, you will see Node.js under the Upgrades menu where you can choose the number of instances that you’d like to order. One instance means that one app will use Node.js and you’ll be able to add as many instances to your hosting account as you like. A new section will show up in the Hepsia Control Panel shortly afterwards and to start using Node.js, you’ll have to specify the path to the .js file that will use the platform and to decide whether the connection will proceed through the shared IP address of the server or via a dedicated one. The controls inside the Hepsia Control Panel will also permit you to restart or to switch off an instance and to view the output of any given app.

In case you’d like to use it for multiple web sites, you can create more instances from the Upgrades section of your Hepsia Control Panel. The setup is as simple as specifying the location of your .js file and choosing if Node.js should use a dedicated IP address or any of the physical server’s shared ones, so you can take full advantage of Node.js even if you lack previous experience with a similar software platform. Our system will also assign a randomly generated port number that will be used to access the .js file for the given app. Hepsia has a user-friendly GUI that will allow you to reboot and to delete any of your active instances, to order new ones or to view your apps’ output with just one click.
