Node.js is a cutting-edge event-driven platform, which is used to create scalable Internet apps. It uses the Google V8 JavaScript engine and it processes requests and responses between a server and an immense number of users much more efficiently than any traditional platform. What makes Node.js unique is the fact that unlike conventional platforms which process the information in massive hunks, it processes everything in little bits. For instance, in case a user has to fill a few fields on a site, Node.js handles the information from the first field once it’s entered, utilizing the server processing time more efficiently. In comparison, conventional platforms wait for all the fields to be filled and while the info in them is being processed, requests from other users remain in the queue. The difference may be negligible for a single person, but it surely does make a difference when a large number of users are navigating a website at the same time. Several instances of Internet sites where Node.js can be employed are online dinner booking portals, chat rooms or interactive browser game portals, i.e. websites that need quick live interaction.
