Node.js is an innovative event-driven system, which is used to set up scalable Internet applications. It’s built with the Google V8 JavaScript engine and it processes HTTP requests and responses between a web server and a huge number of online users more efficiently than any other system. What makes Node.js exceptional is the fact that in contrast to traditional platforms which process the information in massive hunks, it handles everything in small bits. For example, in case a user needs to fill a few fields on a site, Node.js processes the info in the first field the moment it is typed, utilizing the server’s processing power more effectively. In comparison, traditional platforms wait for all the fields to be filled and while the info in them is being processed, requests from other users stay in the queue. The difference may be negligible for a single user, but it absolutely does make a difference when a large number of people are using a website at the same time. Several instances of websites where Node.js can be applied are dinner reservation portals, live chat rooms or interactive browser-based game portals, in other words sites that need quick live interaction.

Node.js in Website Hosting

Since Node.js is present on our cutting-edge cloud web hosting platform, you’ll be able to add it to your shared account and to utilize it for any web-based application that you’ve got, irrespective of which website hosting package you’ve chosen during the signup process.

Several minutes afterwards, you’ll be able to enter the path to the application, in other words where the .js file will be located in your hosting account, as well as to pick the IP address to obtain access to that file – a dedicated IP or the physical server’s shared one.
