Overall Satisfaction with NGINX

We currently use Nginx for our ingress layer into our Kubernetes cluster as well as for setting up simple reverse proxies.
  • Reverse proxy
  • Simple web server
  • Kubernetes ingress
  • Complex confusing configuration.
  • Advanced features are paywalled.
  • No great way to generate configurations with input.
  • Advanced HTTP routing.
  • Ingress layer into Kubernetes.
  • Reverse proxy setup.
  • It allows a standard process many people are familiar with.
  • It is widely supported by the community.
  • It has tons of features.
Nginx is much more lightweight than apache HTTP.
