Perl is a widespread programming language and one of its key pros is the fact that it supports the so-called modules - short pieces of code which contain subroutines and perform a variety of tasks. The useful side of employing modules is that you do not need to write custom program code or add the whole code for a certain process each and every time it needs to be performed. Instead, you'll be able to include just a single line in your Perl script that calls a particular module, that in turn will perform the necessary task. Not only will this lead to shorter and enhanced scripts, but it will help you make changes a lot quicker and much easier. In case you aren't a programmer, but you'd like to start using a Perl application that you've found on the worldwide web, for instance, it's likely that the app will need certain modules to be already installed on your web hosting server.
Over 3400 Perl Modules in Web Hosting
All our Linux web hosting services come with over 3400 Perl modules that you will be able to work with as part of your CGI scripts or web-based apps. They contain both popular and less popular ones, to offer you a choice with regard to what features you can add to your sites. A few examples are Apache::SOAP, CGI::Session, GD, Image::Magick, URI, LWP and many others. The whole list accessible in the Server Information section of our in-house made Hepsia hosting Control Panel, that comes with all the shared accounts. In the same location, you'll see the Perl version that we have along with the path to the modules that you will have to use inside your scripts so as to call a specific module from the library.
Over 3400 Perl Modules in Semi-dedicated Hosting
With over 3400 Perl modules pre-installed on our cloud hosting platform, you'll be able to run virtually any script app written in this programming language without a problem irrespective of the semi-dedicated server plan that you pick. The aforementioned is valid for both pre-made applications that you get online and for custom-made ones that you write. We offer such a large number of modules for two reasons - first of all, to provide you with different options in respect to what kind of features you are able to add to your applications and sites and secondly, to guarantee that in case you want to employ a ready script, it will run properly regardless of what modules it will require. For this reason, some of the modules in our library are very popular while others are used rarely. You can find a list of all of the modules inside your website hosting Control Panel together with the access path which your scripts need so as to use these modules.
