Node.js
Find out more on the potency of Node.js and also how it can help you with your future online application.
Node.js is an open-source, event-driven environment, which uses the Google V8 JavaScript engine. It is used by scalable apps that require live interaction between a server and the online users and can noticeably improve the overall performance of any website that’s using it. Node.js is designed to handle HTTP web requests and responses and ceaselessly supplies little bits of information. For example, if a new user fills a signup form, the moment any info is inserted in one of the boxes, it is forwarded to the server even if the rest of the boxes are not filled and the user hasn’t clicked any button, so the info is processed a lot faster. In comparison, other systems wait for the whole form to be filled and one giant chunk of information is then forwarded to the server. Regardless of how little the difference in the processing time may be, things change in case the site grows bigger and there are numerous persons using it at the same time. Node.js can be used by booking sites, real-time web browser-based video games or live chat applications, for instance, and many companies, among them LinkedIn, eBay and Yahoo, have already included it in their services.
