Node.js
Find out more on the power of Node.js and how it will help you with your future online application.
Node.js is an avant-garde event-driven platform, which is used to build scalable Internet applications. It is built with Google's V8 JavaScript Engine and it handles requests and responses between a web server and a huge number of online users much more effectively than any conventional platform. What makes Node.js unique is the fact that in contrast to traditional platforms which handle the info in huge chunks, it handles everything in tiny bits. For example, when a user needs to fill out several fields on an Internet site, Node.js handles the info in the first field as soon as it’s typed, utilizing the server’s processing capabilities more efficiently. In comparison, traditional platforms wait for all the fields to be filled and while the information from them is being processed, requests from other users remain in the queue. The difference may be negligible for one single person, but it actually does make a difference if an immense number of individuals are browsing a site at once. A few instances of sites where Node.js can be applied are online dinner reservation portals, online chat rooms or interactive browser-based video game portals, i.e. websites that support quick live interaction.
