NGINX Open Source

Overall Satisfaction with NGINX

NGINX is basically used as a server for web applications as implemented in our organization, NGINX helps us solve many problems like accelerated reverse proxying with caching and the best for static content loading. The other cool security feature that we take the most advantage of is that NGINX Limiting the number of simultaneous connections or requests coming from one address which protects our app from attacks against our infrastructure.
  • Limiting the number of simultaneous connections or requests coming from one address

  • NJS Scripting Language.
  • Much more areas of application
  • A bit hard to implement.
  • Security
  • Performance
  • Flexibility
  • Agility
  • Greater CI/CD performances
  • Great with developers
  • easy use after deployments
NGINX Stacks up at the top for me because it's fast, reliable, and secure and apache is also usable but not so good in comparison to NGINX and since I and my organization have switched to NGINX I also don't want to look back at apache as NGINX works the best for our use case scenario.

Do you think NGINX delivers good value for the price?

Yes

Are you happy with NGINX's feature set?

Yes

Did NGINX live up to sales and marketing promises?

I wasn't involved with the selection/purchase process

Did implementation of NGINX go as expected?

No

Would you buy NGINX again?

Yes

The only problems a user can expect is while implementation and it's hard sometimes and things don't go as expected every time, but once implemented the performance and scalability it provides is beyond one's imagination. It makes everything so easy after implementation and we use it for out git repositories branch wise deployment using docker and GitLab.
