Overall Satisfaction with Nginx

We use Nginx as a load balancer and as a reverse proxy for all of our web services. We use it to serve NodeJs applications, REST APIs and Angular front.
  • Great community
  • A lot of documentation available
  • High-performing
  • Easy to configure
  • Cache static assets
  • Multi-threaded support
  • A user-friendly UI console to test some configurations in a test server
  • Our web servers are more efficient in memory
  • Finely configured, latency is very low.
  • Unlike Apache server, few manual restarts are required
We were happy to drop Apache to serve our applications.
Nginx is a very good web server and proxy. To serve NodeJs applications, Nginx + pm2 is very efficient. Coupled with Passenger, it allows MEAN Stacks applications to be deployed very easily.
