Node.js is an innovative event-driven platform, which is used to develop scalable apps. It uses Google's V8 JavaScript Engine and it processes requests and responses between a server and a huge number of users more efficiently than any other system. What makes Node.js special is the fact that in contrast to traditional systems which process the info in massive chunks, it processes everything in small bits. As an illustration, if a user needs to fill out a few fields on an Internet site, Node.js processes the information from the first field as soon as it’s typed, utilizing the server processing time more effectively. In comparison, conventional platforms wait for all the fields to be filled and while the information from them is being processed, requests from other users stay in the queue. The difference may be negligible for one single person, but it surely does make a difference if a large number of people are browsing a site all at once. A couple of instances of Internet sites where Node.js can be applied are dinner reservation portals, chat rooms or interactive browser game portals, in other words websites that support quick real-time interaction.
