Perl is a very popular scripting language that is that is used to make various web-oriented apps, which includes CGI scripts. One of the features that differentiate it from other programming languages is the use of modules - parts of Perl program code which execute predefined tasks and they're universally accepted. In simple terms, as an alternative to generating custom code to perform something or pasting tens and hundreds of lines of program code in your script, you will be able to "call" a module that is already available for this particular process and use only several lines of code. Due to this fact, your script will be executed more quickly since it'll be much smaller. Using modules will, in addition make your script simpler to modify because you'll have to go through much less program code. If you intend to use Perl on your site, you need to make sure that the needed modules can be found on your server.

Over 3400 Perl Modules in Shared Hosting

When you need to employ Perl-based applications on your websites - ready-made from a third-party website or custom-built ones, you can take advantage of our vast module library. With over 3400 modules set up on our custom-made cloud web hosting platform, you will be able to execute any kind of script, regardless of the shared hosting plan that you select. After you log in to the Hepsia Control Panel that is included with all the accounts, you'll be able to see the whole list of modules which we have together with the path that you have to add to your scripts so they can access these modules. Since we now have quite a massive library, you'll find both well-known and rarely used modules. We prefer to be prepared, so if some third-party script that you wish to employ requires a module which is not very popular, we will still have it here.
