How Nginx can help you?

Dedicated port or IP address

If there is a large amount of static content on the server, Nginx is used to allocate a separate IP address or port for these operations. In this way the workload on the server is balanced.

Creating Serverspace infrastructure

Proxy server

When loading a website page with static content, Nginx first caches the data and then returns the result. The next time this page is requested, the response will be many times faster.

Mail server

A Nginx server has built-in authentication mechanisms. Therefore, it is often used to redirect to email services after the client is authenticated.

FAQ

What is Nginx and how does it work?

Nginx is a powerful web server and reverse proxy that excels at managing many simultaneous connections efficiently. It delivers static files swiftly, balances traffic loads, and improves scalability by distributing requests across multiple servers. Utilizing an event-driven, asynchronous architecture, Nginx handles numerous requests with minimal resource usage, making it faster and lighter than traditional web servers. It’s widely used to host websites, route requests to backend applications, and boost both security and performance in web environments.

Which to choose: Nginx or Apache?

Choosing between Nginx and Apache depends on your specific needs and environment. Here’s a quick comparison to help you decide:

  • Performance: Nginx generally handles high traffic and concurrent connections more efficiently, making it a great choice for busy websites. Apache can be slower under heavy loads but is highly reliable for most use cases.
  • Configuration: Apache uses a more traditional configuration with .htaccess files, which allows per-directory overrides and can be easier for beginners. Nginx uses a centralized configuration system, which can be more complex but offers better performance.
  • Features: Apache has extensive module support and is highly flexible, supporting a wide range of features out of the box. Nginx focuses on being lightweight and fast, excelling at serving static content and acting as a reverse proxy.
  • Compatibility: Apache tends to be more compatible with legacy applications and scripts. Nginx is becoming the preferred choice for modern web architectures.

If you expect high traffic and need efficient resource usage, Nginx is often the better option. For ease of use and compatibility, Apache remains a solid choice. Many setups use both together—Nginx as a reverse proxy and Apache handling backend processing.

How do I set up a server with Nginx?

During the server creation process, just select the Nginx option with a single click, and it will be automatically installed and ready to use once your server is up and running. No manual setup required!
