Can Node.js handle high-traffic production applications?
Yes. Node.js's event-driven, non-blocking I/O model handles 10K+ concurrent connections per process. With PM2 clustering or several containers behind a load balancer, Redis for shared sessions, and rolling restarts on deploy, Miracuves-deployed backends scale horizontally and are load-tested before launch. Netflix, PayPal, and LinkedIn all run Node.js at scale.
How much does Node.js development cost at Miracuves?
A ready-made platform from our catalogue starts from $2,199 and ships in 6 days, and its price stays fixed when your scope matches the base product. Custom Node.js backend work starts from $3,699, depending on the work. A custom Node.js MVP typically runs $8,000-$25,000 and takes 2-8 weeks depending on scope - the number of user roles (customer, driver, admin, vendor), real-time features such as live GPS via Socket.io, chat or video, payment and compliance integrations (Stripe, KYC, multi-currency), multi-region or multi-language rollout, and third-party APIs beyond the standard stack decide where it lands. An ongoing retainer starts from $2,299/month for feature work and maintenance. Every quote is written before payment, with no surprise invoices after kickoff.
Does Miracuves deliver the full source code?
Yes - completely. Miracuves delivers the full Node.js codebase, repository with complete commit history, Docker configurations, environment documentation, API specifications, and all deployment credentials. Zero lock-in. Any Node.js developer - your team or another company - can run npm install, start the backend and continue the work immediately after handoff.
How fast can a Node.js backend realistically be delivered?
A ready-made platform from our catalogue - web app, admin panel and mobile apps, with your branding and configuration - ships in 6 working days. A custom Node.js backend, API or real-time service takes 2-8 weeks depending on scope. All timelines are stated in writing before any payment is requested.
Node.js vs Python - which does Miracuves recommend?
For real-time products and API layers - on-demand dispatch, chat, live dashboards, marketplaces - Node.js is usually right: long-lived WebSocket connections suit its event loop, one language (TypeScript) runs across frontend and backend, and npm is the largest package ecosystem. Miracuves recommends Python honestly when the product needs heavy ML/AI or data processing.
What is included in the admin panel with every delivery?
A web-based admin dashboard with user management, order and booking management, analytics panel, content control, payout and commission management, and platform configuration - delivered as a separate web application that works in any browser.
Does Miracuves handle server deployment and infrastructure?
Yes, as part of every delivery engagement. Miracuves handles Docker containerization, cloud provisioning (AWS, GCP, DigitalOcean), SSL certificates, load balancer setup, CI/CD pipeline configuration, and environment secrets management. Production infrastructure is fully documented and handed over.
What happens after the backend is deployed if there are bugs?
Every Miracuves Node.js delivery includes 60 days of post-launch technical support, with error tracking already wired in so we see failures as they happen. Bugs within the delivered scope are fixed at no additional cost. Feature additions beyond scope are quoted separately. Monthly maintenance retainers are available at published rates.
How does Miracuves handle NDA and confidentiality?
Miracuves signs a bilateral NDA before you share any project details. It covers your API design, data model, business logic and every other technical detail. An IP assignment agreement - 100% of the Node.js code, schemas and infrastructure scripts transfers to you - is signed at project start, not at the end.
Can Miracuves upgrade an old Node.js application to a supported LTS release?
Yes. We audit the dependencies and native modules first, then move the application one LTS line at a time - for example from an end-of-life Node.js 18 or 20 to 24 - fixing deprecated APIs, replacing abandoned packages, and running the test suite and a load test at each step. Express 4 applications are moved to Express 5 in the same project where it makes sense. The upgrade is scoped and quoted in writing before work begins.
Does Miracuves build serverless Node.js backends?
Yes. We build Node.js functions for AWS Lambda, Google Cloud Run and similar platforms when traffic is spiky or event-driven - webhooks, scheduled jobs, file processing, APIs with quiet periods - and containers when traffic is steady or connections are long-lived. Real-time features on serverless go through API Gateway WebSockets or a managed pub/sub service. We recommend one or the other from your traffic and running cost before any payment.
Does Miracuves offer white-label Node.js development for agencies?
Yes. Agencies bring Miracuves in as their Node.js team for client backends. The NDA is signed before any detail is shared, the code and documentation are handed over ready to carry your brand, and full source code and IP are assigned to you or your client at handoff. First response is under 2 hours, Mon-Sat 10:00-19:00 IST.
