A Intro to Node.js & NoSQL
- August 21, 2012 · 6:00 PM
We'll be discussing and reviewing the code for an application that uses Node.js and the NoSQL database MongoDB. For those uninitiated, Node.js is a C++ library that incorporates Google's V8 JavaScript engine to allow you to write JavaScript code on the server. It has an event-driven, non-blocking I/O model. No thread synchronization needed, or massive memory needed because it only uses a single thread per CPU.

Currently use Node JS for a web service in production so the talk was less depth than I have experience with.

Anyone know if this is BYOG (Bring Your Own Grub)? If it's not will there be a vegetarian option?

Joey, we usually have pizza and beer and we usually have plain cheese or veggie in there somewhere.
