Seems like the state of the art is to stick with Java services on the backend and use Node as a page server to server HTML pages content, so that Node is a kind of front-controller or proxy.



In a way. Node can do a lot of work and it can handle a whole lot of connections, as well as route all those connections between Java services, databases and other stuff.

The thing where it is not the best match is heavy-duty processing. So, if you're serving images or have a webshop or something that connects to many different warehouses to pull data from, Node is great. If you're doing video encoding and recoding, then yep, leave that part to Java.
