Node.js is a cutting-edge, event-driven asynchronous I/O platform used for websites which offer interactive communication. Some instances of such sites would be online browser video game portals, online chat rooms or hotel reservation portals. The platform handles the info exchanged between the site and its users in small bits, which accelerates the loading speed and the overall performance of the website substantially. If some form with 3 boxes has to be filled by a particular user, for instance, typically all three boxes should be filled out and their entire content is then sent as one sizeable chunk of information to the server. With Node.js, the content of the first box is processed the moment it is entered, before the user writes anything in the second one. In this way, a lot more info can be handled much faster and more efficiently in contrast to any traditional system, which can have a considerable effect on the performance of the site. Node.js is already being employed by many of the largest IT companies such as Yahoo and Microsoft.
