Technology serving the productSystems and integrations
Node.js for a backend that keeps up with product and operations.
Scalability and development speed
Node.js allows using JavaScript on the server side, which speeds up development and facilitates collaboration between frontend and backend.
A backend matched to your operations and product pace
Decision
Technology follows the product goal
Proof
5.0 on Google and public case studies
Outcome
A backend matched to your operations and product pace
01 / Fit
Product first. Stack second.
When Node.js is the best choice
Node.js works well in projects requiring high I/O performance and rapid development.
- REST and GraphQL APIs
- Real-time apps (WebSockets)
- Microservices and serverless functions
- Apps requiring high I/O throughput
- Projects with JavaScript-knowing team
When to consider alternatives
Node.js has its limitations - in some scenarios other solutions will be a better choice.
- Apps requiring intensive CPU calculations (better Python/Go)
- Projects requiring strong typing (better TypeScript + strict mode)
02 / Solution
Architecture and patterns
Node.js offers flexible architecture based on event loop and asynchronicity.
- 01
Express/Fastify
Frameworks for building API - Express for simplicity, Fastify for performance.
- 02
Microservices
Division into independent services communicating via API/RabbitMQ/Kafka.
- 03
TypeScript
Type safety throughout project, better IDE support, easier refactoring.
03 / Quality
Production readiness starts before launch.
Security and quality
Node.js requires conscious security approach - from dependencies to infrastructure.
Dependency Security
npm audit, Snyk, regular updates, minimal dependencies.
Input Validation
Joi/Zod for validation, sanitization, rate limiting, CORS.
Authentication
JWT with refresh tokens, bcrypt for passwords, OAuth2 for SSO.
Performance and maintenance
Node.js offers excellent performance for I/O-bound apps but requires monitoring.
Throughput
Node.js can handle 10k+ concurrent connections thanks to event loop.
Monitoring
APM tools (New Relic, Datadog), logging (Winston, Pino), error tracking (Sentry).
04 / Delivery
How we deliver Node.js projects
Our delivery process is optimized for scalability and quality.
- 01
Architecture Design (1-2 weeks)
API design, framework selection, database architecture, scaling plan.
- 02
Development (6-16 weeks)
2-week sprints, TDD, code review, tests (Jest, Supertest), CI/CD.
FAQ
Questions before you decide
Is Node.js performant enough for production apps?
Yes, for I/O-bound apps (API, real-time) Node.js is very performant. For CPU-intensive tasks better use worker threads or other languages.
