Node.js is an open-source, event-driven environment, which uses Google's V8 JavaScript Engine. It’s used for scalable web applications that need live interaction between a server and the Internet users and can noticeably enhance the overall performance of any site that’s using it. Node.js is designed to process HTTP web requests and responses and incessantly delivers tiny amounts of information. For example, if a new user fills a subscription form, once any information is inserted in one of the boxes, it is submitted to the server even if the rest of the fields are not filled out and the user hasn’t clicked any button, so the info is processed a lot faster. In contrast, conventional systems wait for the whole form to be filled and one giant chunk of information is then sent to the server. Regardless of how small the difference in the information processing speed may be, circumstances change in case the site grows bigger and there’re plenty of people using it simultaneously. Node.js can be used for booking sites, real-time browser video games or web-based chat portals, for example, and numerous corporations, among them LinkedIn, eBay and Yahoo, have already implemented it in their services.
Node.js in Hosting
As Node.js is available on our advanced cloud web hosting platform, you’ll be able to add it to your shared hosting account and to use it for any web app that you have, irrespective of which hosting plan you have picked at signup. The Upgrades menu in the Hepsia Control Panel, which comes with all shared web hosting accounts, will permit you to pick the number of instances that you would like to activate – this is the number of the web apps that will use Node.js. A couple of minutes later, you can include the path to the app, in other words the location of the .js file in your shared account, as well as to select the IP to get access to the file – a dedicated IP or the server’s shared one. In the new Node.js section that will appear in the Hepsia Control Panel, you’ll be able to reboot an instance or to terminate it in case you no longer require it. You’ll also be granted access to the output code with only a click.

You can pick a dedicated IP in case you’ve got one, or any of the server’s shared IP addresses. Our platform will also designate a random port.
