> Today, we are in the process of rebuilding how we deploy device-specific server-side logic to our API tier leveraging single core optimized NodeJS servers
Is this the core Netflix API ? have they moved from java - previously, their entire open source contributions were around java (https://netflix.github.io/). Hystrix repo was updated barely a day ago.
For me, this is more interesting than the VM part.
It is a splitting of the device-specific stuff from the general coordination stuff. So the "core API" as you put it remains in java while letting the device teams write their code in node (much of our UI teams are experts in JS already).
Hystrix is important and won't be going away any time soon.
This is very interesting. And very indicative of convergence. If someone at the same of Netflix has a strong drive towards cross pollination of talent from device to server, then I suppose the js ecosystem is far more successful than I thought.
