The blog in question indicates some uncommon and questionable engineering practices with Node.js. There are likely hundreds of success stories for every one like that.
The first Node.js service I wrote and maintained, processed thousands of requests in parallel and was successfully in production until the company it was developed for ran out of money.

- tracker1 7y agoI didn't get that impression.. what I got was a few probably common issues that will come up when trying to handle more parallel requests with Node. Note: gRPC doesn't support cluster, so you'd have to manage your own multi-thread (Workers) or multi-process (fork) options.
