Perl is a very popular web-oriented programming language, which is employed to create CGI scripts and also a variety of apps. It is very handy as you don't have to generate the very same program code over and over to have some action executed several times, but you'll be able to use modules. These are pre-defined subroutines or sets of tasks that can be called and executed in a script. This means that, you're able to add just a reference to a given module in your code instead of using the entire module code again and again. In this way, your script will be shorter, therefore it will be executed quicker, not mentioning that it will be much simpler to maintain or modify. When you'd like to employ a third-party ready-made Perl script instead of creating your own, it will most likely need specific modules to be present on the hosting server.
Over 3400 Perl Modules in Website Hosting
When you acquire one of the Linux website hosting that we offer, you will get access to a rich library of over 3400 Perl modules that are already installed on our cloud server platform. After you sign in to your Hepsia Control Panel, you are able to visit the Server Information section where you can easily see the whole list. Part of them are more common than others, but we have such a large selection since we are aware that when you employ an app from a third-party site, it may have certain prerequisites as to what kind of modules need to be present on the server or it will not function properly. XML::Parser, URI, LWP and DBD::mysql are on the list of modules that you are able to access and use on your sites.
