1. 12 Reasons to Choose NodeJS for Product Development
In little over a decade, NodeJS has emerged as a top-developer choice for web application
development. Its pros make it a superlative alternative for cross-platform development by
integrating a 2-way client-server communication channel. Without plunging into the
technicalities, let us know the top NodeJS development statistics that substantiate its
superiority over the competition:
NodeJS is highly popular in the US, with 6.3 million websites using it.
It has found use cases in companies such as Amazon, LinkedIn, Tumblr, Netflix, and PayPal.
85% of the developers that use NodeJS, do so for web app development.
Research suggests that this open-source JavaScript runtime environment reduces
development costs by 58%.
It gives programmers the leeway to use JavaScript to create command-line tools for server-
side scripting. However, if you need further convincing, here are 12 reasons why NodeJS
development is at the peak of its powers and seemingly unshakable in the immediate future.
Reasons Why NodeJS for Web Development is the Perfect
Choice
The internal workings of this open-source runtime environment involve package management,
unified APIs, native bindings, and threading. Below we elaborate on how such technicalities
result in productive work.
Speed
The V8 engine, developed by Google, powers NodeJS. It allows for JavaScript code to be
converted to machine code and contributes to development time savings on program
executions. Products for web app development with NodeJS can handle a significantly higher
number of parallel connections.
Thanks to NodeJS app development, Paypal was able to reduce its app response time by 35%.
With such an anomalous increase in application productivity, the company processed double
the number of user requests.
Cost savings
As a web development company, WDP receives multiple inquiries from prospects to hire
dedicated NodeJS developers. But our product suite consists only of such services whose proof
is in the pudding. Upon conducting a cost-benefit analysis, we found that NodeJS
development costs far less than anything else out there. Its memory footprint is smaller in
comparison to PHP or Java servers. A server built on NodeJS runs on an event-driven loop
2. which saves a huge portion of the Random Access Memory (RAM) and in turn
hardware/software resources.
Advance caching
Ask any NodeJS developer and they would probably point to the caching capabilities as its
greatest asset. It can cache single modules. But what difference does that make?
It eradicates the need to re-execute code as servers call for the first module. Caching allows
websites to load faster and alleviate the user experience.
Real-time development
Real-time apps are such that provide dynamic, spontaneous engagement environments for
users. Examples include gaming apps, messenger apps, etc. Their development involves a lot
of event-based programming and communication with a non-blocking server. Developers can
maximize their efforts towards real-time web application development using NodeJS as it uses
asynchronous operations to optimize the coordination with the CPU and the memory.
Event driven
The platform is event-driven i.e. all its developed APIs in the NodeJS library are
asynchronous. But what does this mean?
A server based on NodeJS does not wait for the Application Programming Interface to return
data. Instead, it calls the API, following which the built-in notification mechanism of NodeJS
aids the server to procure the return-call from the previous API.
Scalable
We are a NodeJS web application development company and prescribe its use in areas like
data streaming applications, JSON API-based applications, as well as single-page applications.
We do so keeping in mind its scalability. NodeJS web application development makes for
ultra-high-speed computation speeds due to the V8 engines.
NodeJS uses microservices with which it divides an application into finer processes. These
processes can be allocated in parallel to multiple teams so that they can be developed in sync
with the rising user requests. Faster background processes translate to low-lag operations and
an increased footfall of user traffic.
That said, never use NodeJS for CPU-intensive processes.
Data streaming
Product development is not as simple as people put it. As a NodeJS development company,
we learned it the hard way. Input-Output (I/O) handling is a key component of software
3. engineering. With the tendency of web frameworks to classify HTTPO requests as whole data,
I/O handling gets trickier to integrate.
But that is not the case with NodeJS mobile app development which supports I/O bound
applications. While using apps built on NodeJS users can transcode multimedia files
simultaneously as they are being uploaded onto the server.
What makes this a manageable procedure is a provision that writes data streams onto
WebSockets.
No-rocket science
Most of the programmers these days are familiar with JavaScript. As NodeJS app development
is a JS-based runtime system, it is relatively easier for amateur coders to make the switch.
They can achieve the same results as working with Django, PHP, or spring boot in much less
time and devoting far less computational resources.
Well-rounded community
In a StackOverflow survey, NodeJS was voted rank #1 for two years running in the
miscellaneous technology category. This goes on to show how well-knit and widespread the
developer community is on this tool. Constant upgrades keep people coming back for more,
and access ready-to-use plugins and code-bytes accessible on GitHub.
Technical support
Another reason why professionals prefer NodeJS for web development is that its parent team
offers long-term support. As per convention, following the release of each version of NodeJS,
the code is maintained for the next 18 months. Instead of continuing to add new features,
this period is utilized to fix bugs and collect user feedback for future releases.
It is reported that long-term platform support is prioritized by 62% of developers.
Microservices
On prior occasions, we’ve touched on the topic of microservices and monolithic architectures.
Enterprise-grade projects have an inclination towards implementing the microservices-based
architecture. This serverless approach pays dividends in the long run and is also supported by
NodeJS.
SEO-friendly
More often than not, developers adopt a backwards approach when it comes to SEO practices.
They design a website and then re-design it to become pro-SEO. But that doesn’t have to be
the case with NodeJS. Its built-in features offer such pre-packed codes that are in tandem
with search algorithms.
4. Another reason for using it is that it’s free!
Knowing and understanding the above mentioned points, as a NodeJS development company
in the USA we can say with authority that open source is the way ahead. In addition to being
free, it offers state-of-the art toolsets that include Redux and Flux. It is highly integrable
with open source libraries.
Typical Projects to Start with NodeJS
As a NodeJS development company, we suggest the following projects to train your in-house
team on the platform.
Single page apps
Present-day web applications bear an overloaded semblance partly due to the fact that they
have to process client data. Working in this environment ensures faster response times
between the server and client-side. This is a founding tenet that every single page app is
based on.
Conventional web apps
An amateur NodeJS developer could begin with writing conventional web applications. It
allows streaming HTML data effortlessly.
Proxy development
While offering NodeJS development services our experts have experimented with installing
NodeJS as a proxy server and it worked like a knife through butter. It helps in the case of
apps that rely on external services to import/export data.
Final Thoughts
As a web development company, WDP Technologieshas the firepower to kickstart NodeJS-
centric product development in full swing. With 600+ personnel joining forces from home
virtually (till the pandemic lasts), we’ve handled cross-border projects and made a name for
ourselves. But all that was possible only with the collective efforts of our growth hackers,
who have what it takes to push through for technological superiority.
