Node.js used
Where the Node.js is a platform built on Chrome's JavaScript runtime for easily building fast, 
scalable network applications. The Node.js uses an event-driven, 
non-blocking I/O model that makes it lightweight and efficient, 
perfect for data-intensive real-time applications that run across distributed devices.

(3). Blogs, CMS, Social Applications
(4). Utilities and Tools
(5). Anything that is not CPU intensive.
