Node.js is an open-source, event-driven runtime environment built with the Google V8 JavaScript engine. It is used for scalable apps that require live communication between a server and the Internet users and can substantially improve the overall performance of any website that’s using it. Node.js is designed to handle HTTP requests and responses and ceaselessly supplies small bits of info. For instance, if a new user fills a registration form, the moment any information is entered in any of the fields, it’s delivered to the server even if the other boxes are not filled out and the user hasn’t clicked any button, so the information is handled a whole lot faster. In comparison, conventional systems wait for the entire form to be filled and one giant chunk of information is then forwarded to the server. No matter how tiny the difference in the information processing time may be, things change when the site expands and there are a lot of persons using it at the same time. Node.js can be used by booking portals, real-time web browser-based video games or web-based chat platforms, for instance, and many corporations, including eBay, Yahoo and LinkedIn, have already incorporated it into their services.
