Node Js

Node.js is a server-side JavaScript platform that uses an event-driven, non-blocking I/O model to handle requests asynchronously. It was created to address issues with I/O latency in web servers by using a single thread to handle multiple concurrent connections through asynchronous callbacks rather than blocking processes. Node.js is well-suited for real-time applications and data-intensive applications due to its non-blocking I/O model and scalability. Popular frameworks built on Node.js include Express.js and Sails.js.

NODE.

JS
Ujval Joshi
BRIEF

Server Side Javascript

Built on googles V8 javascript engine

Event Driven and Non blocking IO

Build on C/C++
MOTIVATION
I/O needs to be done differently
var query = db.select(select * from T)
IN MOST CASES WE DO NOTHING
IO LATENCY
L1- 3 cycles
L2 -14 cycles
RAM - 250 cycles
DISK - 41,000,000 cycles
NETWORK - 240,000,000 cycles

APACHE VS NGINX
APACHE VS NGINX
Concurrent connection vs Req/sec
APACHE VS NGINX
Concurrent connection vs Memory
WHATS THE DIFFERENCE?

APACHE use thread per connection

NGINX use event loop

Context switching cost CPU time

Each thread require some memory


DOCTORS SURGERY VS FAST FOOD
DELIVERY
CODE LIKE THIS
Either block the entire process or create multiple execution stack
var query = db.select(select * from T)

// use the result
WE CAN ALSO DO LIKE THIS
Allow program to return to event loop immediately
var result =(select *, function(result) {
// use the result
});
WHY JAVASCRIPT?

Javascript is designed specically to be used


with event loop

Anonymous Functions and closures.

I/O through Event call backs

Only one call back at a time


AGAIN NODE.JS

Offers event driven and non blocking I/O


model

Created by Ryan Dahl in 2009

Current version is 0.10.25
