Node.js is an advanced, event-driven non-blocking I/O system devised for sites which support real-time communication. Several instances of such websites would be web-based browser video game portals, live chat rooms or hotel reservation portals. The platform processes the info sent between the website and its users in small bits, which improves the speed and the overall performance of the website considerably. When a given form with three boxes should be filled by a specific user, for example, usually all three boxes should be filled and their entire content is then sent as one huge chunk of information to the web server. With Node.js, the content of the first box is processed as soon as it is entered, before the user types anything in the second one. Thus, much more info can be processed much faster and more efficiently compared with any other platform, which can have an immense effect on the performance of the site. Node.js is already being employed by many of the leading IT firms like Yahoo and Microsoft.
