Using node.js in production?

To those in the business of web development, is node.js ready for production use? How reliabl开发者_如何学编程e is it?

Node.js is absolutely ready for production in terms of things like system stability, power, and performance. However, some features might still change before version 1, and there are a lot of mature tools on other platforms that don't quite exist yet for node (though new things are popping up on node every day).

Several businesses are already using node.js in production. For a few, check out https://github.com/joyent/node/wiki/Projects,-Applications,-and-Companies-Using-Node

outloud.fm uses it, seems to work pretty well

I don't run that site though, so I can't speak from personal experience

Does it do what you want?

Does it run like you want it to without crashing for your needs?

Then it's production use ready.
