Boosting Your Node.js Applications with the Cluster Module
Node.js is known for its speed and efficiency, but it also uses a single-threaded execution model. This means that, by default, a Node.js application uses only one CPU core, leaving the rest of the server’s capacity underutilized. Fortunately, Node.js provides us with the powerful cluster module, which helps scale our applications and distribute the workload across all available CPU cores. Today, I’ll explain what it is, how it works, and how you can start using it.
