I was just reading More proof that enterprises love Node.js and wondering:
Should enterprise consider using nodejs for business critical applications?
It seems cloud computing companies like Joyent are fully on to it. Even Microsoft have started supporting nodejs on their Azure platform. I would like to know how seriously should we consider nodejs for enterprise application? Is it ready for mission critical applications?

It helps build highly performant apps As it is built on Google Chrome's V8 JavaScript Engine, Node. js supports high-speed code execution. This means that by using Node. js for enterprise development, developers can build highly performant applications that experience large volumes of traffic.
It is suitable for large enterprise projects that do complex and complicated computations and data processing. The comparison in terms of development time between Node. js and Java is that, Node. js is easier to learn than Java, leading to faster development when using Node.
Not Suitable for Heavy-Computing Apps Node. js doesn't support multi-threaded programming yet. It is able to serve way more complicated applications than Ruby, but it's not suitable for performing long-running calculations. Heavy computations block the incoming requests, which can lead to decrease of performance .
js dead? The short answer is “NO.” The long answer is, “NO, it's not dead, and it probably will never die.” Node. js is just as relevant to coding in 2021 and beyond, even if the hype around it has stabilized slightly.
Hell Yeah!!.. Understanding what Node.js is very important tho. A lot of large companies are already making a move towards using Node.js in many different ways
