Perl Scripting
Find out precisely why Perl will be the go-to scripting language for many programmers.
Perl is a well-known language, which is employed to create various web applications and CGI scripts. Many programmers consider it to be one of the most practical programming languages out there as it supports the usage of modules - small bits of code with pre-defined subroutines that are designed to perform a particular task. The modules can save you time and effort and they will contribute to the fast speed of your websites since you're able to integrate just a single line of code to call a specific module rather than using all of the program code for the process within your script. Perl is a multi-purpose language normally used for scripts, but it's been employed to create a lot of popular pieces of web software as well, like cPanel, BugZilla and Movable Type. It is also used on high-traffic sites which includes IMDB, Craigslist, Ticketmaster and many more.

Perl Scripting in Cloud Hosting
Since Perl is installed on our cloud hosting platform, you will be able to execute Perl/CGI scripts with all of our
cloud hosting packages without any difficulties. You can also do this automatically via a cron job if your plan includes this attribute. If not, you can add cron jobs through the Upgrades area of your Hepsia hosting Control Panel. Over 3000 Perl modules are offered on our servers and you'll be able to use them with your scripts. The complete list can be found inside the Control Panel and if you want to use any module, you just have to include the path to our module library within your script. When third-party scripts that you need to include in your website require a certain module, for example, you don't need to worry if they will function effectively or not. In this way, you'll be able to create a dynamic Internet site and provide hundreds of different functions to your visitors.

Perl Scripting in Semi-dedicated Servers
All
semi-dedicated hosting plans that we supply are capable of running CGI scripts or all other apps written in Perl and due to the fact that cron jobs are a part of all packages, you'll be able to choose if a given script will be executed manually or automatically on regular basis. What's more, you can use a huge library of over 3000 modules which are already set up on our servers and use their functions in order to save your time when you write your scripts. In the event that you use some third-party Perl script, you can also be sure that in case it requires a specific module to run effectively, we'll have it as our library contains both widespread modules and less popular ones. You can see the path to the modules that you need to use in our scripts under the Server Information drop-down menu of the Hepsia web hosting Control Panel.
