Perl is a well-liked web-oriented computer programming language, which is used to create CGI scripts and also various apps. It's very useful considering that you do not have to produce the same code repeatedly to have some task executed several times, but you will be able to work with modules. They are pre-defined subroutines or groups of functions that can be called and executed within a script. That is to say, you'll be able to add only a reference to a certain module inside your program code as an alternative to using the entire module code time and time again. This way, your script will be shorter, which means that it will be executed much faster, not mentioning that it will be easier to maintain and / or modify. When you'd like to employ a third-party ready-made Perl script rather than writing your own, it'll most likely need specific modules to be present on the website hosting server.

Over 3400 Perl Modules in Semi-dedicated Servers

Every single semi-dedicated server that we supply will allow you to employ any Perl-based web application that you wish, regardless if you've created it yourself or if you've downloaded it from some third-party site. Either way, it'll run properly regardless of the modules it needs as we have a massive library that includes over 3400 different modules. The full list can be found in the Hepsia website hosting Control Panel which is used to control the semi-dedicated server accounts. Along with the list, you can also find the directory path to the modules, so as to know what you should add in your scripts in order for them to connect to the modules. Examples of what we have are URI, DBD::mysql, Image::Magick and LWP and we have such a multitude of modules to make sure that any type of script can run in spite of its requirements.
