You'll need a VPS for that. You can then run commands via PHP/Python/Perl or anything else.

VPS is a virtual private server - basically a 'virtual computer' created on top of a physical computer by using virtualisation software. That helps more control over the machines and the environment and also allow for quicker provisioning.

Isn't it the JavaScript that handles most of the stuff on client's machine? I'm not aware of how those online compilers work.

CGI script can be created on server side which requires "sandbox".
Note : any error in scripting can be potentially dangerous.

You answered it! Javascript does the stuffs on client machine. If you want to compile a program, then you would need the compiler on the clients machine. Hence, this work has to be done server side to make it independent.

I've suggested the VPS requirement only because compilation and such low level stuffs will not be allowed by any shared hosting. You'll need to a server of your own with root access. Once you've proper access to the server, you can do the things with simple PHP scripts or as told by Troll_so_hard, by using CGI scripts.

Oh and by VPS I mean, any server with high level privileges. Doesn't necessarily have to be an VPS. You can have a dedi if you want, but yeah, VPS is more than enough for this task.
