Node.js is a JavaScript runtime built on
Chrome's V8 JavaScript engine.
Node.js uses an event-driven, non-blocking I/O model that makes it lightweight and efficient.
What is Node.js
Reactor Pattern
event-driven model
I/O request
Event Loop
Event
Demultiplexer
Event
Queue
Hardware
I/O
Enqueue Event
Execute Event Handler
> fs.readFile('./file.txt', cb);
> uv__fs_read(req)
> cb(null, data);
