It also presents a well-equipped library of various JavaScript modules that simplify the development of web applications using the platform to a great extent. Features of Node.js are as follows: Non Blocking and focus is on the Event − All API’s of Node.js library are asynchronous, i.e. they are non-blocking. It originally means a Node.js based server will never wait for an API to return the data. The server then moves over to the next API after calling it.
It then using notification mechanism of Events of this platform helps the server to get a response from the previous API call. Very Fast – Since this platform is fabricated on Google Chrome’s V8 JavaScript Engine, its library is very fast in code execution. Even though it is Single Threaded yet it is Highly Scalable − This platform utilizes a single threaded model along with event looping.
