Perl is a very popular web-oriented computer programming language, that's used to set up CGI scripts and also a variety of apps. It is very useful due to the fact that you do not have to create the same program code again and again so that you can get some task executed more than once, instead you can employ modules. They are pre-defined subroutines or groups of operations which can be called and executed in a script. In other words, you'll be able to add only a reference to a specific module inside your code rather than using the whole module code again and again. In this way, your script will be shorter, thus it'll be executed a lot quicker, not mentioning that it will be easier to maintain or modify. If you want to use some third-party ready-made Perl script rather than creating your own, it'll most likely need specific modules to be present on the website hosting server.

With more than 3400 Perl modules pre-installed on our cloud website hosting platform, you will be able to run almost any script app developed in this programming language without any problems irrespective of the semi-dedicated server plan that you pick. This applies for both pre-made applications that you get online and for custom-built ones that you write. We supply such a multitude of modules for two reasons - first, to offer you a selection in respect to what kind of functions you'll be able to add to your applications and sites and second, to ensure that if you wish to work with a ready script, it'll run flawlessly no matter what modules it needs. For this reason, some of the modules in our library are very popular while others are employed rarely.
