| 134 | + #### Node.js is a great choice for a JavaScript runtime | ||
| 135 | + | ||
| 136 | + ##### Goal | ||
| 137 | + | ||
| 138 | + Highlight the benefits of chosing Node.js as your backend JavaScript runtime. Focus on what is great | ||
| 139 | + about Node.js without drawing comparisons to alternatives. We don't want to say negative things about | ||
| 140 | + other options, only highlight what is great about Node.js as a choice. | ||
| 141 | + | ||
| 142 | + Some of the things to highlight include: | ||
| 143 | + | ||
| 144 | + * How widely it is used (you never get fired for chosing Node.js). | ||
| 145 | + * The openess of the project. It is part of the OpenJS Foundation and it's governance is set up to avoid | ||
| 146 | + any one company from dominating the project. Decisions are made by the collaborators (of which there are quite | ||
| 147 | + a few) versus a small number of people. | ||
| 148 | + * It has predictable and stable releases and has delivered on the release schedule since 2015. | ||
| 149 | + * It was a well defined security release process and manages security releases well. | ||
| 150 | + * As the defacto standard, it has the highest likelihood of being supported for a given package on npm. | ||
| 151 | + * It is not dependent on any one company for its continued existence reducing risk of using it. | ||
| 152 | + * The large number of platforms supported. | ||
| 153 | + * Asynchronous non-blocking i/o architecture drives high transactional throughput, making it ideal for web workloads. | ||
| 154 | + * Single threaded programming model enables very low resource consumption, making it ideal for containerised workloads. | ||
| 155 | + * Highly vibrant ecosystem with enterprise support from many vendors. | ||
