Enhancing Application Performance with worker_threads
Introduction Node.js is known for its single-threaded, event-driven architecture, which excels at handling I/O-bound operations. However, for CPU-bound tasks, this can lead to performance bottlenecks. Node.js 12 introduced the worker_threads module to address this limitation by allowing JavaScript to run in parallel threads. In this blog, we will explore how to use worker_threads to improve…

Leveraging Streams for Efficient Data Handling in Node.js
Introduction Streams are a powerful feature of Node.js that allow you to process data in chunks rather than loading it all into memory at once. This approach is particularly useful when dealing with large files or data sources. In this blog, we will explore how to use streams effectively in Node.js to handle large datasets…

Mastering Asynchronous Programming with async/await in Node.js
Introduction Node.js has always been popular for its non-blocking, event-driven architecture. With the introduction of async/await in Node.js 7.6 and its subsequent enhancements in later versions, asynchronous programming has become more intuitive. This blog will explore how to leverage async/await to make your Node.js code more readable and maintainable. Understanding Callbacks and Promises Before async/await,…
