Node.js reliability for large application

Question

I am new to Node.js and am currently questioning its reliability.

Based on what I\'ve seen so far, there seems to be a major flaw: any uncaught error/exceptions crashes

Answer 1

Exceptions don't crash the server, they raise exceptions.

Errors in node.js that bring down the entire process are a different story.

Your best bet (which you should do with any technology), is just test it out with your application as soon as possible to see if it fits.
