Perl is a very popular web-oriented computer programming language, which is designed to create CGI scripts as well as various apps. It is really handy because you don't need to create the same code again and again to have some action executed several times, instead you will be able to use modules. They're pre-defined subroutines or sets of tasks that can be called and executed inside a script. This means that, you can add just a reference to a given module in your program code rather than using the whole module code again and again. This way, your script will be shorter, therefore it'll be executed faster, not mentioning that it'll be a lot easier to maintain and / or modify. If you want to employ some third-party ready-made Perl script rather than writing your own, it'll most likely need particular modules to be present on the hosting server.

Over 3400 Perl Modules in Semi-dedicated Hosting
With more than 3400 Perl modules pre-installed on our cloud website hosting platform, you are able to run almost any script app created in this programming language without any problems regardless of the semi-dedicated server package that you pick. This applies for both pre-made apps which you discover online and for custom-made ones that you write. We offer such a large number of modules for two reasons - first of all, to provide you with different options in respect to what kind of characteristics you can add to your apps and sites and second, to ensure that when you wish to work with a ready script, it will run flawlessly whatever the modules it will require. Because of this, many of the modules inside our library are quite popular while others are used very rarely. You will find a list of all of the modules in your website hosting Control Panel in addition to the access path which your scripts need so as to use the modules.
