NODE JS CERTIFICATION, TRAINING AND OTHER DETAILS

Node JS

Node.js is an open-source platform built on Chrome's JavaScript runtime environment for building fast and scalable networking applications. Node.js applications are written in JavaScript programming language and can be run on several platforms like OS X, Microsoft Windows, Unix, and Linux.

The need for Node.js became prominent when JavaScript developers felt the need of running an application not only in the browser but also on the machine as a standalone application. Node.js is lightweight, more efficient and suitable for data-intensive real-time applications that run across distributed devices.

Node.js is free and provides a JavaScript library that simplifies web application development to a greater extent. 

No. Node.js is not a programming language. Node.js is an open-source, cross-platform JavaScript run-time environment that executes JavaScript code outside of a browser. It runs on various platforms like Windows, Linux, Unix, Mac OS X, etc., Node.js is a built-on Google Chrome's JavaScript V8 Engine. It uses an event-driven, non-blocking I/O model that makes it lightweight and efficient. 

Yes, Node.js is an open-source, cross-platform. It is a cross-platform JavaScript run-time environment that executes JavaScript code outside of a browser. Node.js allows developers to write command line tools and server-side scripting in JavaScript to produce the dynamic web page content before that page is sent to the web browser of the user. Hence Node.js depicts a “JavaScript Everywhere” pattern uniting web application development around a single programming language, instead of using different languages for server side and client-side scripts.


Node.js supports Linux, macOS, Microsoft Windows, SmartOS, FreeBSD, and IBM AIX. Node.js creates web servers and networking tools using JavaScript. It also allows the creation of several ‘modules’ that handle various core functionality. These modules are used for file system I/O, networking (DNS, HTTP, TCP, TLS/SSL, or UDP), binary data (buffers), cryptography functions, data streams, and other core functions. Also, the modules of Node.js make use of API to reduce the complexity of writing server applications. 

Node.js is used for developing the applications that run on server side using JavaScript as programming language. It is mostly used to develop web applications predominantly web APIs, and widely used in developing microservices using JavaScript. However, Node.js is a good for developing any kind of server-side applications that are not CPU intensive. 


Below are some of the most common implementations using Node.js: 

  • Static file servers 
  • Web Application frameworks 
  • Messaging middleware 
  • Servers for HTML5 multiplayer games 
  • REST APIs and Backend Applications 
  • Real-Time services (Chat, Games etc.) 
  • Blogs, CMS, Social Applications 
  • Utilities and Tools 
  • Anything that is not CPU intensive 

The main features of Nodejs are: 

  • Asynchronous and event Driven – All APIs of Node.js library are asynchronous, that is, non-blocking. It essentially means a Node.js based server never waits for an API to return data. The server moves to the next API after calling it and a notification mechanism of Events of Node.js helps the server to get a response from the previous API call. 
  • Extremely fast – As it is built on google chrome v8 engine, the fastest JavaScript engine, so inherently node is super-fast 
  • Single Threaded but Highly Scalable – Though single threaded with clustering ability node applications scale well and run efficiently due to its non-blocking I/O architecture 
  • No Buffering – All streams in node work on event-driven hence node.js applications never buffer any data and process data in chunks 

The usage of databases depends on the purpose, speed, and ease of use. You simply can’t choose a database based on the language and framework. You choose a database based on the data and scale, platform requirements, and how the features of the database match your requirements. 


Here is a list of databases suitable for Node.js: 

  • Cassandra 
  • Couchbase 
  • CouchDB 
  • LevelDB 
  • MySQL 
  • MongoDB 
  • Neo4j 
  • Oracle 
  • PostgreSQL 
  • Redis 
  • SQL Server 
  • SQLite 
  • ElasticSearch 

If you want a database that has a lot of community and great documentation work, you can use the databases coming under SQL categories like MYSQL, PostgreSQL, SQLite or MongoDB. Redis is an in-memory database. MongoDB integrates well with Node.js, and it provides a great wrapper package called ‘Mongoose’. Before choosing any database, make sure you select according to the features they provide and your needs. 

Node JS is a server-based technology used to build and run web applications. Node.js applications are written in JavaScript programming language and can be run on several platforms like OS X, Microsoft Windows, Unix, and Linux. Programmers. Node.js is free, lightweight, more efficient and suitable for data-intensive, real-time applications that run across distributed systems in parallel.


Here are the reasons why Node Js is becoming more popular today: 

  1. Node.js uses JavaScript both on the server and client side, which gives developers to use the same language 
  2. It is lightweight 
  3. Provides built-in support for object databases 
  4. Node.js applications can be hosted almost anywhere 
  5. It has the largest repository of libraries 
  6. More importantly companies like Netflix, Walmart, PayPal, LinkedIn, Uber, NYT, eBay and many more are very productive building applications with Node JS. 

Node.js is increasingly becoming a part of the multiple corporate giants across the globe. The developers love features like open-source, concurrency, speed, versatility, agility, and fast performance. Today, many companies are using Node JS to develop several applications such as social media apps, real-time tracking apps, video and text chat engines, online games, and collaboration tools. 


Following are some high-profile companies using Node.js for developing the primary applications: 

  • Netflix 
  • LinkedIn 
  • Walmart 
  • Trello 
  • Uber 
  • PayPal 
  • Medium 
  • eBay 
  • NASA  
  • Groupon 

Along with these, there are several other global majors like Microsoft, Google, Yahoo, Mozilla, and GitHub who have embraced Node.js as a part of their operations. More and more companies are using Node.js due to its innumerable advantages. 

Node JS Installation

Node.js can be installed by downloading the respective binary from node.js website. Along with node.js, npm also will be installed. 

npm is a dependency management tool used to install JavaScript libraries.

  • Express.js - Simply Express, is a web application framework for Node.js, and is designed for building web applications and APIs 
  • Hapi - A rich framework for building applications and services. Hapi enables developers to focus on writing reusable application logic instead of spending time building infrastructure 
  • Koa - Koa is a new web framework designed by the team behind Express, which aims to be a smaller, more expressive, and more robust foundation for web applications and APIs. By leveraging async functions, Koa allows you to ditch callbacks and greatly increase error-handling 
  • Loopback - The LoopBack framework is a set of Node.js modules that you can use independently or together to quickly build REST APIs 
  • Sails.js - Sails.js is a Model-View-Controller web application framework developed atop the Node.js environment. It is designed to make it easy to build custom, enterprise-grade Node.js web applications, and APIs 
  • Meteor - Meteor, or MeteorJS, is a free and open-source isomorphic JavaScript web framework written using Node.js. Meteor allows for rapid prototyping and produces cross-platform code
