Node.JS node js sleep

Hi,
I deployed Node.js as a solution to return data from database for a React application. The live site works fine but Node.js seems to go to sleep when not in use after a few minutes. Once the site is "on" again - a page loaded (ex: homepage) which requires access to the database - Node.js seems to wake up and return the data, it takes a minute or two to occur. It then performs as expected serving other calls in a timely manner. I have looked everywhere for solutions but I have no answer. I'm posting it here in the hope that someone has an answer.

Thank you for your help, the problem is with the o2swicth server.
I asked the o2swicth tech team for application standby and here is their response:

"This is indeed how phusion passenger works. Your application does not run continuously in the background, but is launched from phusion passenger with us. As a result, your application stops after a few minutes if no request is not is made on it indeed."

Hi there, not sure I myself understand what you are looking for? Let me see if I have it right, you would like to find a solution to keep your node application persistent, that does not shut down after it has produced the desired data?

that's it, the data must persist even after a period of inactivity

The website is hosted by o2switch, a paid host. I didn't use a cloud server, I did it manually. I installed the "Node js setup" in the cpanel of the host and then I transferred the files via the fpt filezilla
