Perl is a popular scripting language that is designed to create various web-oriented applications, such as CGI scripts. Among the characteristics which distinguish it from various other languages is the usage of modules - batches of Perl program code that complete predefined tasks and they are commonly accepted. In simple terms, instead of creating custom program code to do something or pasting tens and hundreds of lines of program code inside your script, you'll be able to "call" a module that is already available for this particular task and use just several lines of program code. Thus, your script will be executed much more quickly because it is smaller. Using modules will additionally make a script easier to edit due to the fact that you will need to search through much less code. If you'd like to use Perl on your website, you need to make sure that the needed modules can be found on the server.

Over 3400 Perl Modules in Hosting

When you get one of the Linux hosting services that we offer, you'll receive access to a huge library of more than 3400 Perl modules which are already installed on our cloud server platform. As soon as you log in to the Hepsia Control Panel, you'll be able to go to the Server Information section where you can easily check the entire list. Part of them are more common than others, however we offer such a large number as we're aware that in case you use an application from some third-party website, it could have specific prerequisites as to what modules need to be present on the server or it may not function efficiently. XML::Parser, URI, LWP and DBD::mysql are on the list of modules that you are able to access and use on your websites.

Every single semi-dedicated server that we provide allows you to use any type of Perl-based web application that you'd like, no matter if you have made it yourself or if you've downloaded it from some third-party site. In either case, it'll run perfectly irrespective of the modules it needs as we have a large library that contains over 3400 different modules. The complete list can be found in the Hepsia hosting Control Panel that is used to take care of the semi-dedicated server accounts. In addition to the list, you will also see the directory path to the modules, so as to know what you need to include in your scripts in order for them to connect to these modules. Examples of what we have are URI, DBD::mysql, Image::Magick and LWP and we have such a large number of modules to ensure that any kind of script can run regardless of its requirements.
