First you should probably convince us why you need real-time technology. ----
If you want reasons to use node, then this topic has come up before. Some common reasons are: - Node has a great community that attracts lots of smart people - Which leads on to `npm` and how node has sane package management. - One language for both browser and server. - Fast for *some* things. Reasons you shouldn't use node: - You don't have the resources (time and $) to hire node people. Remember node isn't as commonplace as Java. - To rewrite you entire application. While this might sound cool, you will find out the hard way it isn't. - To write a load balancer or a simple file server; or something that has already been done better (eg. haproxy or nginx) or could be done better in another technology. These lists are definitely not non-exhaustive, but really what I am trying to say is don't use node just because it is cool. Think and think again and make sure you use the right tool for the job.
