Subject: IBM announces new language environment - Node.js for i

Link to the announcement:

http://ibm.co/1EoKAcU

"Node.js is a platform built on Google Chrome JavaScript™ run time for
server-side and networking applications. It is enabled on IBM i and shipped
as part of the licensed program 5770-DG1. Besides the core functions of
node.js, IBM i node.js also offers extensions to operate DB2 for i and gain
access to native IBM i objects such as programs, commands, data queues,
data areas, spool files, user spaces, jobs, system values, environment
values, and more."

Node.js is especially known for its support for I/O streaming, whether that
be the local file system, sockets, creating lightweight HTTP servers and
HTTP clients, encryption, zip and unzip, and other string handling.

How many language environments does that make?

1. ILE (RPG, Cobol, C, CL, REXX).
2. SQL & SQL DDL.
3. Java.
4. PHP.
5. Python.
6. Power Ruby and Rails.
7. Node.js
