Perl is a well-known programming language and among its main pros is the fact that it supports the so-called modules - short pieces of program code that contain subroutines and perform a variety of tasks. The useful side of working with modules is that you will not need to write custom program code or add the entire code for a given action each and every time it has to be performed. Alternatively, you are able to add just one line in your Perl script that calls a particular module, that in turn will perform the needed action. Not only will this provide you with shorter and optimized scripts, but it will also help you make changes faster and easier. In case you are not a programmer, still you would like to start using a Perl app which you've discovered on the worldwide web, for instance, it's very likely that the app will require certain modules to be already set up on your hosting server.
Over 3400 Perl Modules in Semi-dedicated Servers
Every single semi-dedicated server that we provide will allow you to use any Perl-based web app that you would like, no matter if you've made it yourself or if you have downloaded it from some third-party website. In either case, it'll run perfectly whatever the modules it needs since we have a large library that consists of more than 3400 different modules. A complete list can be found in the Hepsia hosting Control Panel that's used to control the semi-dedicated server accounts. Along with the list, you will also see the directory path to the modules, so as to know what you have to add in your scripts in order for them to link to these modules. A few examples of what we have are URI, DBD::mysql, Image::Magick and LWP and we have such a large number of modules to make sure that any kind of script will run in spite of its requirements.
