Node.Js is by far the most popular server-side technology, and arguably the best in terms
of speed and performance. The development time is relatively short, and it extremely
scalable and optimal for growing projects. Itβs all thanks to the asynchronous approach of
Node.Js that allows it to beat other technologies by freeing the server from being bound by
heavy queries and requests. Despite its relatively young age, Node.js is currently powering
approximately 500k websites, including some of the most popular services and websites
online such as Paypal, Facebook, and LinkedIn.
