Event-Driven Node
Node.js's non-blocking, event-driven architecture guarantees efficient
handling of simultaneous requests and quick response times
Overview
Event Driven Architecture(EDA) is based on asynchronous non-blocking communication between event producers and event consumers that are able to release the resource consumption while waiting for the response to return. Events enhance the decoupling of now well-defined bounded context (DDD) services technically and at runtime becoming the first architectural consideration for cloud and container-native distributed systems.
Because more communication patterns are available, multiple consumers can receive events, simultaneously lowering the latency and increasing the throughput.
Why Event Drive Node.js
Node.js is an asynchronous event-driven JavaScript runtime. This combination allows allows developers to build highly scalable and performant applications.
This also makes Node.js a great runtime for Cloud-Native Applications with its fast startup time and event driven nature

Node.js Event Emitter Cheat Sheet | Red Hat Developer
Event Emitters are one of the most important built-in APIs since much of Node.js' core is built around an idiomatic asynchronous event-driven architecture. Event Emitters can help developers create a publisher-subscriber pattern with ease.
