Re: Using Node w/ Apache

[Aaron Bartell <aaronbartell@xxxxxxxxx>]

You can use Node.js with Apache in a reverse proxy scenario.  I'd only do
that if you had a need to do it.  Otherwise Node.js has great clustering
capabilities built into it.  Here's a fairly vanilla Node.js server with
clustering, https, and pid-to-file:

On spaces.litmis.com I have Nginx fronting Ruby and Node.js web servers.  I
needed Nginx in this case so I could have it listen on ports 80/443 and
then forward requests to multiple web servers (Ruby and Node.js).
