Keynote Panel: Node.js at Massive Scale
summary
Companies report migrating legacy stacks to Node starting around Node 0.10 and incrementally moving features like template rendering and data marshalling off Python/Java, with one org routing 100% of traffic through Node for client requests and Netflix-scale ~130M users discussed. Deployments use Docker, Kubernetes or PM2 plus clustering, heavy CDN caching and CPU-based autoscaling; incidents include a client-only pub/sub memory leak and broken V8 profiling tools, with a production fix sometimes deployed in ~15 minutes.
