Perl is a widely used programming language and among its key advantages is the fact that it works with the so-called modules - short pieces of program code which contain subroutines and do multiple tasks. The handy side of using modules is that you do not have to create custom-made program code or add the entire code for a specific action each time it has to be executed. Instead, you'll be able to include only one line in your Perl script that calls a given module, which consequently will execute the necessary action. Not only will this result in shorter and improved scripts, but it will also help you make changes faster and easier. If you aren't a programmer, but you would like to employ a Perl app that you've discovered on the Internet, for example, it is very likely that the application will require certain modules to be already set up on your website hosting server.

Over 3400 Perl Modules in Hosting

Our Linux hosting plans include over 3400 Perl modules that 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 give you different options regarding what features you're able to add to your sites. Some examples are Apache::SOAP, CGI::Session, GD, Image::Magick, URI, LWP and a lot more. The full list can be found in the Server Information section of our tailor-made Hepsia hosting Control Panel, that comes with all the shared accounts. In the same place, you will find the Perl version which we have as well as the path to the modules that you'll need to use inside your scripts so as to call a specific module from our library.

Over 3400 Perl Modules in Semi-dedicated Servers

With more than 3400 Perl modules pre-installed on our cloud hosting platform, you are able to manage virtually any script application created in this programming language without any problems irrespective of the semi-dedicated server package that you select. The aforementioned applies for both pre-made apps which you get online and for custom-made ones which you write. We supply such a large number of modules for two reasons - first of all, to offer you a choice in respect to what kind of functions you're able to add to your apps and sites and secondly, to guarantee that if you would like to use a ready script, it will run flawlessly regardless of what modules it requires. Because of this, most of the modules inside our library are quite popular while others are used very rarely. You'll see a list of all the modules in your website hosting Control Panel along with the access path that your scripts will need in order to use these modules.
