NodeJS has shown a lot of potential for building ad-hoc servers for an almost unlimited number of applications.
However, the infrastructure for controlling has already proven to be not an easy task to solve through the JavaScript mechanism of NodeJS servers.
Drupal approach comes to the rescue here. This module maintains a billboard for controlling a cluster of NodeJS servers:
- Any NodeJS server first needs to login to Drupal
- Upon successful login, the server communicates its run-time passcode
- Noone can communicate with the NodeJS server without the run-time passcode
- Consumer of the NodeJS servers need to login to Drupal to obtain the passcode
