Abstract :
One of the more interesting developments recently gaining popularity in the server-side JavaScript space is Node.js. It´s a framework for developing high-performance, concurrent programs that don´t rely on the mainstream multithreading approach but use asynchronous I/O with an event-driven programming model.
