Overall Satisfaction with Nginx

We use Nginx Plus Professional as a load balancer and as a reverse proxy with its ModSecurity component - WAF (Web Application Firewall). Nginx supports all the web traffic of the whole organization and some of our clients.
  • Nginx supports millions of requests per second
  • Nginx supports our high availability schemes
  • Nginx ensures that our information and resources are available and secure
  • The Nginx team has been very proactive when we need help, support and in the renew of licenses process
  • In five years we only have had 10 minutes of unavailability because of Nginx. However, Nginx support was very helpful for us.
  • First, the high availability of our operation, in terms of money would be dollars per second.
  • We can make changes in configuration without restart the servers or stop Nginx service. This favors availability.
When we did load and performance testing we got better results with Nginx
Nginx is excellent working as a load balancer, reverse proxy - WAF (Web Application Firewall), Web server, and high availability and high performance scenarios.
