The advantages of Nginx

Linux, MySQL, PHP The advantages of these frameworks have been introduced before, LNMP and lamp is different from the Web server Nginx, then nginx compared to what advantages of Apache?

Nginx is a small and efficient Linux under the Web server Software, has been in some large sites for many years, many domestic and foreign portals, industry sites are in use Nginx, quite stable.

Nginx's main features are stable, feature-rich, simple installation configuration, low system resources. Nginx has good support for reverse proxy and load balancing. Nginx can be used not only as a Web server, but also as a load Balancer server, proxy server and mail server.

As a Web server, the use of fewer resources than Apache,nginx, support more concurrent connections, Nginx processing static files, index files, automatic indexing efficiency is very high, reflecting higher efficiency.

As a proxy server, Nginx can achieve non-cached reverse proxy acceleration, improve the speed of the site.

As a load balancer server, Nginx can support both rails and PHP internally, as well as support HTTP proxy servers for external service, and also support simple fault tolerance and load balancing using the algorithm; Nginx is written in C, whether it is system resource overhead or CPU usage efficiency. Perlbal is much better.

Installation configuration, Nginx installation is simple, flexible configuration, the configuration file is very concise (also can support Perl syntax); performance, Nginx is specially developed for performance optimization, very focused on efficiency. It uses the poll model, can support more concurrent connections, the maximum can support the number of 50,000 concurrent connections will act, and only a very low memory resources; In terms of usability, Nginx supports hot deployment, the boot speed is very rapid, can be in the case of uninterrupted service, the software version or configuration to upgrade, Running in time for months without restarting, you can almost do uninterrupted display.

Visible, Lnmp (linux-nginx-mysql-php) The combination of four kinds of software, can become a free, efficient, scalable Web services system.
