Best Servers for Python and Node.js Apps

So you want to run a Python or Node.js app on your web hosting? Smart move. These are powerful technologies that can help you build everything from simple APIs to complex web applications.

But here's the thing: not all servers are created equal.

If you're hosting with Site.eu, CloudLinux web hosting servers are your best bet for running Python or Node.js applications. Here's why.

Why CloudLinux Servers?

CloudLinux servers come with built-in selectors for both Python and Node.js. Think of selectors as version managers that let you:

• Choose the exact version of Python or Node.js you need
• Switch between versions without breaking your app
• Deploy multiple applications with different version requirements

This flexibility matters. A lot.

Let's say you built your app with Node.js version 14, but you want to test it with version 18. On a CloudLinux server, you can do this without affecting your live application. No drama.

What Makes CloudLinux Different?

CloudLinux uses Apache Passenger to run your Python and Node.js applications. This gives you:

• Resource isolation - Your app won't be affected by other users on the same server
• Automatic process management - The server handles starting and stopping your application
• Better stability - If one application crashes, it doesn't take down the entire server

Server Requirements for Python and Node.js

Here's what you need to know about running these applications:

For Node.js:

Even a basic Node.js app needs actual server resources. You can't run Node.js in a browser like regular JavaScript. Most applications run fine with 512MB of memory, but complex apps might need 1GB or more.

For Python:

Python apps have similar requirements. The exact resources depend on what your application does. A simple API? Minimal resources. A data processing application? You'll need more power.

The good news? CloudLinux servers at Site.eu come optimized for these use cases.
