Well you could just install the async package which has lots of useful functions like mapLimit which will reduce the burden and only run a number in parallel.

Caolan Asyncjs vs Async/Await: Which One to Use for Async Operations in NodeJS
The documentation of asyncjs is quite straightforward and easy to read. As we've only seen a couple of use cases in this article, I'd recommend to go the asyncjs documentation and check out other possibilities with the library. You can also try to replicate the same using async/await to solidify your understanding of where the library might still make sense.

[AskJS] How were asynchronous functions written before Promises?
It basically was tons and tons of callbacks. They'd nest weirdly deep and be a pain to work with. If you're curious, here's a link to one of my favorite JavaScript libraries from those days - it gave you a bunch of neat utilities for dealing with async code.
