Observable Node.js Applications
summary
Claims that Netflix runs its site on Node.js at ~60 million subscribers and shows concrete tooling: Restify for HTTP with auto logs and request capture stream, Bunyan-style streaming JSON logs, and vasync to expose async workflow state. Examples include a 7,000 ms production request broken down into API + render timings, a ring-buffer that dumps per-request logs only on error, and one-liner Unix processing that prints latency distributions.
