Why is Node.js Better than Java and .NET?

There are many different types of programming languages and environment available now for website developments; today we are going to talk about another new kind of environment known as Node.js. This is an open-source environment, which has features like java of reusing the code and can also be re-distributed. There are different companies which provide reliable Node.js dvelopment services. Node.js is not a programming language, not an environment, but it's a server framework.

We can create different types of APIs with the base being Node.js which was not possible as easily with Java and .NET. Node.js easily connects with JavaScript and provides the best possible experience to clients for both the client and server side programming.

Let us also have a look at why Node.js is preferred than JAVA or ASP.NET

Java or ASP.NET

1. When a file request comes, it will be sent to computer's file system
2. The script will wait for the system to open the file and read it.
3. The content gets returns to the client.
4. Now the file will be ready to handle the next request and run the next codes on the customer's side.

Node.js

1. As soon as the file request comes to Node.js, it sends the task to the computer file system and forgets about it.
2. Will be ready to handle the next request.
3. When computer file system has done its job to open and read the file, the Node.js framework will retake the role in its hand and return the file to the client for further execution.
4. Now let us have a look at the reasons on why Node.js is accessible than another different environment.

Unlike JAVA, Node.js is quite simple and doesn't imply with the concept of multithreading. This makes programming on the Node.js quite easy. Here you don't have to deal with different types of input and output which will be executed asynchronously.

• Java due to its multi threading structure was not able to utilize the maximum out of the low-end CPU. Node.js is quite capable of working on the extreme low-end CPU with ease. Even the developer who has just started to study about Node.js will soon get to understand the capabilities of the language.
• It is usually made to work in the cloud environment, and it is quite proven for the language to be working on it. If you are having a bit of knowledge on JavaScript, then you can easily make most out of Node.js.
• .NET is one of the most dominant languages for developers to work with, till Node.js came into existence. With the existence of Node.js, it is quite clear that Node.js can make most out of any CPU it will be working on because they are much more efficient on heavily I/O bound operations.
• When Java came out, it was one of the best languages, because with fewer codes compared to C & C++ we were able to perform more jobs. Now with income of Node.js, it is quite clear that Java is left behind when it comes to coding minimization. Node.js also has an open-source library for its community of users, and everyone is free to use the same, and that's what open-source means.
• No one likes to be writing the same code again and again, and Node.Js solves the problem by giving the advantage of re-using the code again and again. This feature is quite a big hit when it comes to developers, and this might be the key reason behind Node.js in becoming famous.

Although it is entirely true that Node.js is far better than Java and .NET, but still we have to see on the customer's need on which programming language we must work. It also depends on the budget, and the type of software exactly needs to be created. You can easily find Node.JS development company, who will provide the top level class of website developed for you with having Node.js as its base for different kind of works.
