What the fuck is this shit?

A reinvention of a broken wheel. I prefer it to working with Java/PHP though.
>>55554997
its the future, get on with the times grandpa
>>55554997
Seriously? This has been around for 3 or 4 years now, it's ancient.
>>55554997
Is it 2011 again??
pretty ez to make an api with
Hola
>>55554997
ruby for front end hipsters who only know javascript
tbh though i really like it. non-blockig async, tons of modules for anything you need, high level of abstraction for most things
>>55555524
And don't forget bundled packet manager for easyrequire("leftward")
>>55554997
is V8 + libuv + an C++ API
>>55554997
it the reason why /g/ is dominated by bitterly angry retards who refuse to learn anything new
It's a joke that went too far.

the fastest server side technology right now
>>55557312
for I/O and request heavy operations maybe
not for math heavy operations though
>>55557312
>I'm retarded.
or you forgot adding "javascript"
>>55557675
well it used for web sites mostly so it's mostly I/O
>>55554997
its the best thing that ever happened to me,
>>55557714
No I did not forget "javascript" it is the fastest web back end right now. Lots of large companies are switching their back (at least partially) end to node.js
>>55557777

>>55557777
seriously kill yourself.

It's the fastest growing meme right now.
You can do I/O ithat's fast enough for web in any scripting language. They could have used Tcl even.
>>55554997
A backend for hipsters, SJWs and trannies.
Go for retards.
>>55558096
go is garbage, not even comparable

Something is fucked in their testing. Most likely they run a single instance of node.
From their github:
>The tests were run with:
>Node.js v0.12.2
>Node MySQL 2.7.0
>Sequelize 3.1.1
>Node MongoDB Driver 2.0.33
>Mongoose 4.0.4
>Node Redis 0.12.1
>Hiredis 0.4.0 (C lib for Redis)
No proxy, like nginx.
Node.js does not scale on its own. You need to run multiple instances of node behind a load balancer.

Pretty nice technology to quickly create simple web services.
But there isn't superior in any way to other popular alternatives though.
