Perl is a widespread programming language and among its main pros is the fact that it works with the so-called modules - short pieces of code that contain subroutines and do multiple tasks. The beneficial side of employing modules is that you will not have to create custom code or add the whole code for a given task whenever it needs to be performed. Instead, you'll be able to add only one line in your Perl script which calls a given module, that in turn will execute the necessary task. Not only will this lead to shorter and improved scripts, but it'll also enable you to make modifications faster and easier. In case you aren't a programmer, still you would like to begin using a Perl application that you've discovered online, for instance, it's very likely that the app will need some modules to be already installed on your hosting server.
Over 3400 Perl Modules in Semi-dedicated Hosting
If you want to employ a Perl-based web application or CGI script, you will be able to use 3400+ different modules that are available on our cloud hosting platform and are a part of each and every semi-dedicated server we provide. You'll be able to see the whole list anytime using your Hepsia CP along with the folder path required for your scripts to access the modules. We identify the fact that some third-party applications could need modules which aren't quite popular to run efficiently, hence the big number we've installed on our end. URI, LWP, DBD::mysql and Image::Magick are amongst the modules which you'll be able to use with your Perl apps no matter the plan you opt for.
