Perl is a widespread web-oriented programming language, that is designed to create CGI scripts as well as a variety of applications. It is very convenient owing to the fact that you don't need to write the very same program code repeatedly in order to have some action executed more than once, instead you can employ modules. They're pre-defined subroutines or groups of tasks which can be called and executed in a script. In other words, you'll be able to add only a reference to a given module within your program code as an alternative to using the entire module code time and time again. In this way, your script will be shorter, thus it shall be executed quicker, not mentioning that it will be easier to maintain and modify. If you want to use a third-party ready-made Perl script as an alternative to writing your own, it'll probably need certain modules to be present on the web hosting server.
