Perl is a well-liked web-oriented computer programming language, that is designed to generate CGI scripts along with a variety of applications. It's very practical since you do not need to generate the very same program code time and time again to have some process executed a couple of times, instead you're able to work with modules. They're pre-defined subroutines or groups of operations that can be called and executed within a script. In other words, you can add only a reference to a given module inside your program code rather than using the whole module code again and again. In this way, your script will be shorter, thus it'll be executed more rapidly, not mentioning that it'll be a lot easier to maintain and / or modify. When you would like to employ a third-party ready-made Perl script instead of writing your own, it'll probably need particular modules to be present on the website hosting server.

Over 3400 Perl Modules in Cloud Hosting

All of our cloud plans feature over 3400 Perl modules which you'll be able to work with as part of your CGI scripts or web-based apps. They include both widespread and less popular ones, so as to offer you a choice with regard to what functions you will be able to add to your websites. A few examples are Apache::SOAP, CGI::Session, GD, Image::Magick, URI, LWP and many others. The full list is available in the Server Information area of our custom Hepsia web hosting Control Panel, that is featured with all the shared accounts. In the same location, you can see the Perl version which we have and the path to the modules that you'll need to use inside your scripts to call a specific module from our library.

Over 3400 Perl Modules in Semi-dedicated Servers

Every semi-dedicated server that we offer will allow you to use any type of Perl-based web app that you would like, no matter if you have made it yourself or if you've downloaded it from some third-party site. In either case, it will function properly regardless of the modules it needs because we have a large library that contains more than 3400 different modules. A full list is accessible in the Hepsia website hosting Control Panel which is used to take care of the semi-dedicated server accounts. Along with the list, you can also find the directory path to the modules, so as to know what you should add in your scripts in order for them to connect to these modules. Some examples of what we have are URI, DBD::mysql, Image::Magick and LWP and we have such a large number of modules to make sure that any kind of script will be able to run regardless of its requirements.
