Node.js is an avant-garde event-driven system, which is used to create scalable apps. It is built with Google's V8 JavaScript Engine and it processes requests and responses between a server and an enormous number of Internet users much more efficiently than any conventional platform. What makes Node.js special is the fact that in contrast to conventional systems that process the information in sizeable hunks, it handles everything in little bits. For instance, when a user needs to fill in a few fields on an Internet site, Node.js handles the info in the first field as soon as it is inserted, utilizing the server’s processing resources more efficiently. In contrast, conventional systems 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 insignificant for a single person, but it undoubtedly does make a difference if an enormous number of people are navigating a website simultaneously. A few instances of websites where Node.js can be applied are dining booking portals, live chat rooms or interactive browser-based video game portals, in other words sites that support quick live interaction.
