Node is a runtime environment for JavaScript, not a framework. Regarding the drawbacks you mention:

1. Node is perfectly capable of running in systems with a single CPU.
2. Node is no different from browser javascript in that regard and it has had promises, generators and async/await for a long time now.
3. Lots of people out there are using node with MySQL and PostgreSQL databases, so running node with a relational database is definitely feasible.
4. No idea why you would say that. The environment is easy to set up, running a node application is straightforward and many coding bootcamps are teaching JavaScript as first programming language, so what exactly makes it not good for beginners?
