Description
Monica Ene-Pietrosanu is a Director of Software Engineering at Intel. In this video, Monica provides an overview of how the performance of Node.js is changing as it moves to use cases within the cloud and data center. In addition, she discusses how Intel is supporting the Node.js community and what projects and working groups interest her the most.
A
My
name
is
Monica
in
a
petrol
sauna.
I
am
an
engineering
director
with
the
Intel
software
and
services
group
and
I've
been
working
on
enabling
and
delivering
software
for
the
new
data
center
architectures
for
the
past
years.
I
am
in
the
software
engineering
field
for
about
20
years,
and
my
team
at
Intel
is
very
involved
in
the
node.js
project
as
well
as
in
the
node
foundation.
We
are
part
of
the
benchmarking
committee
in
the
node.js
foundation.
Intel
is
also
part
of
the
node.js
board
and
we
are
a
platinum
sponsor
for
the
the
foundation.
A
Intel's
involvement
in
the
node
community
is
benefiting
developers
and
end
users.
First
Intel
has
been
involved
in
node.js
for
quite
a
while.
We
have
a
team
who's
working
on
v8
for
more
than
eight
years,
and
this
team
has
contributed
more
than
a
thousand
patches
to
v8
is
the
number
two
contributor
after
Google
and
more
recently
with
nodejs
evolving,
we
started
to
contribute
to
node
core
with
performance
related
patches.
A
More
than
this
we
are
seeing
performance
evolving.
The
way
performance
is
measured
is
evolving,
as
node
is
being
used
more
and
more
in
the
cloud,
and
the
new
data
center
use
use
cases
initially
notice
being
used
on
the
front
end,
but
now
we
are
seeing
it
be
peeling
into
the
back
end
as
well.
So
performance
is
not
a
nice-to-have,
it's
a
must
and
more
than
this,
the
way
it's
been
measured
so
far
was
quite
unrealistic.
We
had
like
single
threaded
workloads.
We
were
running
on
a
single
node
that
is
not
reflecting
the
reality.
A
So
what
my
team
has
been
doing
was
working
with
the
node
community
and
our
industry
partners
in
developing
some
new
measures
of
performance.
One
of
them
was
announced
last
year
at
not
interactive.
In
Austin,
it's
called
no
DC
a
is
DC
from
data
center.
A
is
from
the
employee
information
service
is
simulating
an
employee
information
service.
It's
a
multi
node,
it's
a
three-tier
workload
running
on
multiple
nodes
and
can
run
in
multiple
configurations
simulating
the
way
node
is
being
used
in
the
data
center
these
days
and
providing
more
realistic
measures
of
performance
and
other
development.
A
We
I'm
just
coming
out
from
the
session
where
we
announced
a
new
use
case
that
we
developed
together
with
Walmart
using
their
electrode
infrastructure
and
simulating
the
server-side
rendering.
So
we
call
that
node
deceive
data
center
SSR
from
server-side
rendering,
which
is
at
an
alpha
phase,
but
we
just
open
source,
it's
looking
for
community
contributions
and
feedback,
and
we
are
looking
to
evolve
that
into
a
standard
benchmark
for
for
nodejs.
One
other
way
that
Intel
is
contributing
to
the
open
source.
Community
and
nodejs
development
is
by
catering
to
the
performance
needs
of
the
psychosis
tum'.
A
We
on
one
hand
we
are
working
with
the
benchmarking
committee,
as
I
mentioned
in
parallel.
We
are
also
exposing
a
performance
portal
which
is
running
on
the
latest
Intel
platforms
and
is
providing
nightly
performance
results
on
note
areas
on
the
major
runtime
spider
and
go
HH,
DM
and
so
on.
That
portal
can
be
accessed
by
each
of
you
in
real
time
as
HTTP
languages
performance
in
Telkom,
and
it's
also
sending
emails
nightly
emails
to
the
community
members.
So
you
can
subscribe
to
a
mailing
list
and
learn
how
performance
for
node
is
evolving
day
by
day.
A
What
excites
me
most
about
the
future
of
nodejs
and
related
technologists
as
lots
of
things
first
I'm
very
excited
about
the
present
I.
Think
node
has
been
like
a
child
that
did
grow
in
one
year,
like
the
others
in
10,
like
the
story
so
I
have
in
my
team.
At
Intel,
we
are
looking
into
several
runtimes
and
languages
and
node
has
been
the
terrible
child
growing
very
fast,
so
I'm
very
excited
that
the
node
community
has
doubled.
The
number
of
contributions
have
doubled
over
the
past
years.
A
Everything
else
kind
of
doubled
in
the
grown
at
an
accelerated
pace.
More
than
this,
what
I'm
excited
when
we
talk
about
the
future?
Is
this
accelerated
pace
to
innovation?
Know
these
enabling
developers
to
bring
innovation
to
market
in
a
very
fast
way.
You
don't
have
to
spend
months.
You
can
have
your
application
rolled
out
there
in
a
matter
of
days
and
time
to
market
is
an
unbeatable
value
proposition.
