Node.js
Learn more about the strength of Node.js and also just how it will help you with your future online app.
Node.js is an open-source, event-driven system, which uses Google's V8 JavaScript Engine. It is used by scalable applications that require real-time communication between a web server and the worldwide web users and can tremendously boost the overall performance of any website that’s using it. Node.js is intended to handle HTTP requests and responses and incessantly provides little amounts of info. For instance, in case a new user fills out a subscription form, as soon as any information is entered in one of the boxes, it is submitted to the server even if the remaining boxes are not filled and the user hasn’t clicked on any button, so the information is processed a lot faster. In comparison, other platforms wait for the entire form to be filled out and one giant hunk of information is then sent to the server. No matter how tiny the difference in the information processing speed may be, things change if the Internet site expands and there’re numerous people using it at the same time. Node.js can be used by booking portals, interactive browser-based games or instant messaging software, for example, and lots of companies, among them eBay, Yahoo and LinkedIn, have already included it in their services.
