I'm just curious as to why having Node run on top of the Java run time is better than say, vanilla C++ compiled Node running naively. Doesn't it run on pretty much every popular platform now, anyway?
If you are going to build out new services in Node.js, why not simply create auxiliary architecture to support it? Service layers don't need to be physically integrated, although I can see the argument from an "gee this is gonna be easier to convince my IT department to do" perspective. To me it just seems like an interesting exercise, not anything truly practical, although I don't mind being educated in the matter.
