Node.js became the largest project on Github in early 2012 surpassing Ruby-on-Rails. Several large companies with performance-intensive applications are turning to the node.js platform to solve performance and scalability challenges.

One of very few ambitious Danish applications being developed in node.js is the venture-backed startup Admazely and their CTO, David Björklund, will give an introductory lecture on the platform. The speech will covers questions like:

  • What is node.js?
  • Why are companies like Facebook and LinkedIn using node.js and for what?
  • When should you consider node.js as your platform?
  • How do you build high-performance applications with node.js?
