NodeSource is excited to announce support for the aarch64 (ARM 64-bit) architecture in Enterprise Linux based distributions! It includes: In the last decade x86_64 was the dominant architecture in Enterprise Linux based distributions, but since 2018 there has been a significant increase in arm64 downloads. Also, big tech companies such as Apple and Amazon are adopting the arm64 processor.

In the last year, I've spent many hours writing patches for libuv and Node to collect new metrics. The goal of this was to indirectly infer the state of the application without introducing measurable overhead. I've run a few hundred hours of benchmarks and collected over one million data points to make sure my analysis was correct. Eventually, I plan to write about all aspects of my research, but today we will focus on a metric that has already been added to Node.

We are excited to announce N|Solid v4.3.0, which delivers Import/Export functionality allowing users to easily match configuration settings across and covers the security patch to coincide with Node.js v15.2.1, v14.15.1, and v12.19.1. N|Solid Console users can now export configuration settings using either NSolid Console or the CLI, the result is a JSON format file which can be used to import settings across different setups.

NodeSource is excited to announce N|Solid JS API! 🥳 With this new API you can use all the power provided by the N|Solid console and CLI using your own JavaScript code programmatically. In other words, now it is not necessary to listen to events from the console, but from your own code you can decide when to run a certain command under your chosen conditions.

We are excited to announce NSolid 4.1.0, which introduces NodeSource Certified Modules NCM in NSolid console and NCM Strict Mode. NodeSource Certified Modules provides you and your teams with actionable insights into the risk levels that are present in your use of third-party packages. Using a series of tests, we score packages on npm to look for a number of weighted criteria. With the NCM you can scan your projects, for existing security vulnerabilities, license concerns, code risk and code quality.

Node.js Enterprise (N|Solid) is now available for Windows 10 🎉. With N|Solid v4 we reimagined some of the runtime’s internals. This not only introduces support for Windows 10 (BETA) but lays the groundwork to provide the most performant, secure and observable version of Node.js in scaled production anywhere.

NodeJS is a server-side platform that’s built on the JavaScript Engine (V8 Engine) of Google Chrome. It’s an open-source, cross-platform runtime environment for JavaScript code execution outside the browser. The platform, being event-driven, works on a non-blocking I/O model, making it lightweight and effective in building web applications. With the platform, you could simultaneously run code on the client and server side, hastening the development process.
