Node js: Debugging and Performance Tuning

Node.js: Debugging and Performance Tuning


Node.js apps are known for their blazing-fast speed, but hard-to-find bugs and suboptimal processes can drag performance down. Isolating the problem in the stack can often grind productivity to a halt. In this course, Node.js developer Jon Peck shows how to debug and speed up your site as he walks through how to fix a complete—but flawed—rock-paper-scissors game. Jon shows how to log problems, debug issues, measure performance, implement caching, and continuously optimize your application for performance.

Topics include:

• Building a troubleshooting mindset
• Why measure performance?
• What’s a microservice architecture?
• Managing microservices with PM2
• Effective logging strategies
• Debugging Node.js applications
• Benchmarking performance
• Profiling code execution
• Knowing what to optimize
