Of course the simplicity of using JavaScript on the server was part of Netscape's original vision back in the day with Netscape LiveWire. But that was when 350 MHz servers were the best thing you could buy and long before Mozilla emerged from the Netscape organization to continue to advance the state of Web technologies. Today with computing cycles having increased more than 10-fold and Mozilla's work on <a href="/ja/docs/Rhino" title="Rhino">Rhino </a>(JavaScript interpreter in Java) and <a href="/ja/docs/SpiderMonkey" title="SpiderMonkey">SpiderMonkey </a>(JavaScript interpreter in C) and <a href="/ja/docs/JavaScript" title="JavaScript">JavaScript </a>itself, we have very solid foundations for JavaScript to become extraordinarily useful and applicable on the server-side again -- this time with <a class="external" href="http://www.aptana.com/jaxer/benchmarks" title="http://www.aptana.com/jaxer/benchmarks">performance in the same range</a> as with other popular server-side environments like PHP and Ruby on Rails.

Server-Side JavaScript is another way that, as <a class="external" href="http://arstechnica.com/news.ars/post/20080822-firefox-to-get-massive-javascript-performance-boost.html" title="http://arstechnica.com/news.ars/post/20080822-firefox-to-get-massive-javascript-performance-boost.html">this article quotes</a> Brendan, "that Mozilla wants to 'get people thinking about JavaScript as a more general-purpose language' and show them that 'it really is a platform for writing full applications.'"</p> -<p><a class="external" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SSJS" title="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SSJS">Many vendors</a> today are embedding Mozilla Rhino or Mozilla SpiderMonkey into Web server environments.
