Node.js

Node.js is an open-source, event-driven environment built with Google's V8 JavaScript Engine. It’s used by scalable apps that require real-time communication between a web server and the Internet users and can considerably boost the overall performance of any Internet site that’s using it. Node.js is designed to process HTTP requests and responses and ceaselessly delivers tiny amounts of info. For instance, in case a new user fills out a signup form, once any information is inserted in one of the fields, it’s delivered to the server even if the other boxes are not filled out and the user has not clicked on any button, so the info is handled a lot faster. In contrast, other platforms wait for the entire form to be filled out and one big hunk of information is then forwarded to the server. Regardless of how small the difference in the processing speed may be, circumstances change if the Internet site grows bigger and there’re plenty of individuals using it at the same time. Node.js can be used by booking websites, interactive web browser video games or online chat portals, for example, and numerous companies, including Yahoo, LinkedIn and eBay, have already integrated it into their services.
