Perl is a popular scripting language which is used to build different web-oriented apps, such as CGI scripts. One of the attributes that differentiate it from many other programming languages is the use of modules - parts of Perl program code that do predefined tasks and they are commonly accepted. In simple terms, rather than writing custom program code to perform something or pasting tens and hundreds of lines of program code in your script, you are able to "call" some module that already exists for this particular process and use just a couple of lines of program code. As a result, your script shall be executed much more rapidly as it is much smaller. Employing modules will also make the script simpler to edit as you'll need to search through a smaller amount of program code. If you'd like to use Perl on your site, you have to ensure that the necessary modules can be found on the server.
Over 3400 Perl Modules in Shared Hosting
When you buy one of the Linux shared hosting service that we provide, you'll have access to a large library of more than 3400 Perl modules that are already set up on our cloud server platform. When you sign in to the Hepsia Control Panel, you are able to visit the Server Information section where you could see the complete list. Part of them are more common than others, yet we have such a large number since we're aware that if you employ an app from some third-party website, it may have certain requirements as to which modules have to be available on the server or it may not function appropriately. XML::Parser, URI, LWP and DBD::mysql are among the modules that you're able to access and take advantage of on your websites.
Over 3400 Perl Modules in Semi-dedicated Servers
With more than 3400 Perl modules pre-installed on our cloud web hosting platform, you will be able to manage virtually any script application developed in this programming language without a problem whatever the semi-dedicated server plan that you select. The abovementioned is valid for both pre-made applications which you discover online and for in-house made ones which you write. We offer such a multitude of modules for a couple of reasons - first of all, to provide you with a selection in respect to what features you'll be able to add to your applications and sites and second, to make sure that if you'd like to employ a ready script, it will run properly regardless of what modules it needs. That's why, many of the modules inside our library are very popular while others are used very rarely. You will find a list of all the modules inside your hosting Control Panel in addition to the access path that your scripts need in order to use these modules.
