java node.js integration

I am trying to pick a right web technology both for I/O heavy and CPU heavy tasks. NodeJs is perfect for handling large load and it also can be scaled out. However, I am stuck with the cpu heavy part. Is it possible to integrate another technology (e.g. Java) into node, so that I will have it running my algorithms in other threads and then use the results again in node. Is there any existing solution? Any other suggestions will be very good.
