Node.js has ability
to handle the thousands of concurrent connections with single process and
minimum overhead using the JavaScript developed the server applications and
networking applications.
There are some reasons which people choose Node.js.
I.
Streaming Data
II.
A real time applications like
online games, collaboration tools and chat rooms etc.
III.
Great Performance in I/O Processing
IV.
JSON APIs based Applications
V.
PROXY Applications
VI.
Node.js
is developed with Google's JavaScript V8 engine as its core.
However, there are some inconveniences of the
Node.js language which may stay forever:
I.
Nested callback hell.
II.
In Node.js, any CPU intensive
computation will block the responsiveness.
III.
Dealing with files can be a bit
of a pain.
IV.
In Node.js, the relational
database is a bit of a pain.
V.
It's asynchronous programming
model not for synchronous model.
Finally, we can say that Node.js is good in some
cases but it cannot takeover Ruby on Rails
because,
I.
Ruby on Rails is a web framework.
II.
Node.js is a server-side JavaScript
implementation.
I hope this information will be helpful! Thank
you!
