All about Node.js
We leverage Node's powerful runtime to develop custom web applications that don't crack under pressure.
Node.js (or simply Node), is a runtime server environment that allows for the running of Javascript outside of an end-user's browser. In other words, it enables the use of Javascript within a server environment, rather than as a frontend language in the browser. Because Javascript is so powerful, Node.js unlocks unrivaled capability in the realms of custom server and application development. Node allows us to run Javascript outside of a client browser, making available the power of Javascript at the server or application layer. Javascript is well-known for its high level of flexibility and its ability to empower developers to create a wide range of applications. By leveraging Javascript at the server layer, huge possibilities become available for the development of data-heavy, extensive applications.
Node is able to run on a wide variety of operating systems, including Windows and Unix-based systems (such as Linux and macOS), which allows for ease of integration with existing infrastructure and the ability for web application teams to determine a best-fit solution.
Node.js itself is written in a combination of C++ and Javascript, combining some of the most powerful programming languages into a high-performance runtime.
Node is one of the most powerful runtime server environments, and as such can be used for the development of almost any type of server or application.
Node.js is used to power Javascript-based backend server environments. Javascript is traditionally a frontend programming language, but through Node.js it's possible to utilize the strengths of Javascript for the creation of powerful backend applications.
Node.js is positioned as a next-generation server environment, with its unique value proposition being its capability to run Javascript outside of a web browser. Compared to traditional alternatives, Node.js offers unparalleled power and flexibility in the development of custom servers and backend applications. Node introduces the ability to execute Javascript outside of a browser, enabling the use of JS for complex backend operations. The library offers a range of benefits compared to traditional server programming languages, not least the flexibility and data-centric nature that Javascript itself brings.
Existing web applications can be moved to Node.js through a process that we refer to as web application migration. This involves the redevelopment and reimplementation of an existing server or application as a Node-based alternative. Lots of legacy applications can be effectively redeveloped as Node apps, making it possible to take advantage of the gains Node brings in relation to data-heavy processing. Legacy backends such as those running on PHP, Laravel or Coldfusion are popular candidates for reimplementation as modern Node applications, and for good reason. We also see a lot of situations where an application was initially chosen due to high levels of accessibility, such as Wordpress, but over time it becomes clear that it’s no longer suited to the growing demands of modern applications.

Let's talk Node.jsWe develop powerful backend applications using Node.js
We leverage the advantages of Node.js to build high-performance, fit-for-purpose backends.
Highly Scalable
Node is renowned for its scalability. It's able to handle a large number of requests simultaneously, which makes it a great choice for applications of high loads which anticipate the need for scale over time. Node is non-blocking, which means it can continue to receive and process requests even whilst waiting for existing processes to complete.
Performant by Design
A high performance choice for the development of application backends, Node's I/O concurrency allows it to execute code asynchronously, and juggle multiple processes at the same time. This aids developers to create an environment that doesn't readily crack under pressure. Node's lightweight nature does it plentiful further favors in this regard.
Asynchronous Execution
One of Node's super-strengths is asynchronous execution. In other words, Node is able to receive, handle, and process multiple requests at the same time, without requiring the previous processes to reach completion first. Not only does this ensure that every morsel of processing power is utilized, but more importantly results in faster responses for both your end users and your operational backend processes.
Fits Into Any Stack
As Node is based on a Javascript runtime, it can be easily integrated and deployed in the context of any existing tech stack—boasting low requirements for additional dependencies and negating complex server configuration. This makes it easier and more cost-effective to deploy Node applications, even within a preexisting stack. For stacks which already utilize a high proportion of JS, Node offers a seamless integration point.
Unrivaled Speed
Node.js is known to be fast, and for good reason. With its ability to handle multiple concurrent requests, coupled with native support for asynchronous functions, Node is able to deliver speed that rivals competing backend technologies. Because it's so lightweight, boilerplate code and application bloat can be kept to a minimum, offering multiple points of performance gain.
Faster Development Cycles
Node.js is both lightweight and unopinionated, and boasts an impressively low requirement for boilerplate code. As a result, development cycles can occur quicker and with far-less friction when compared to bloated, legacy backend architecture. New functionalities, microservices, and APIs can be introduced within hours, rather than days or weeks.
Modern Infrastructure
Node is the epitome of modern web application infrastructure—and provides a robust point of entry for modernization or digital transformation of existing legacy architectures. And for new applications, Node provides a malleable, high-performance environment to bootstrap dynamic applications at pace. Say goodbye to the traditional constraints of legacy backends and hello to a high-performance future on the web.
Complete Database Flexibility
Node simply doesn't care where or how your data is stored, and that's a good thing. The runtime is able to interface with any kind of database, whether SQL-based, NoSQL, or even flat file. This means that you're able to match the right database technology to your specific business requirements, alleviating the need to compromise on your data storage strategy. Your database engine & the DB architecture can be built
Serverless capabilities
Seamlessly integrating with serverless architectures, Node offers a low-maintenance and cost-effective alternative to traditional server-based deployments. You can now worry less about underlying server infrastructure and cumbersome maintenance, and repurpose these newfound resources to focus on further development and innovation.
Infinitely Flexible
The inherent flexibility of Node.js means it can be purposed for a wide range of possible application architectures and deeply-relevant use cases. Node doesn't impose bounds on how an application should be structured, offers vastly cross-platform compatibility, and comes with complete control over dependencies.
Faster, stronger with Node.jsThe buiness case for Node.js
Node is Javascript based. If your frontend is already built on Javascript, moving to Node is a no-brainer for a more consolidated tech stack.
Javascript is loved by developers for two principle reasons. Firstly: its sheer flexibility. But more importantly, because it makes data processing and manipulation a breeze.
This is great news for data-heavy applications that require large amounts of frequent, complex data processing. And because Node is based on Javascript, it makes use of all the same strengths in data processing, transformation and manipulation as Javascript itself.
Node's other strengths, such as asychronous processing and I/O concurrency, make it the perfect choice for applications that requrie rapid responses and ultra-fast data processing.
Many tech stacks utilize high levels of Javascript already, commonly for frontend applications. By utilizing Node on the server-side, you can achieve a significantly faster pace of development organization-wide, as well as more time-efficient maintenance cycles through reusability.
With a primarily-Javascript-based stack, functions can be better standardized and reused between both frontends and backends, and Javascript-based microservices can serve all components within a stack.
A unified technology stack provides unique benefits to web and mobile applications, where Javascript's strengths can be utilized on both the frontend and the backend. This makes it easier to manage, extract, and visualize your all-important data, deliver a faster and more consistent real-time experience, and ease operational burdens.
