Nginx is a high-performance HTTP and reverse proxy server, as well as an IMAP/POP3/SMTP proxy server. Initially developed by the Russian Igor Sysoev, it is now maintained by the Russian company Nginx Inc. Its notable features include low memory usage and strong concurrency capabilities, making it a superior choice among similar web servers.

High Performance: Nginx utilizes an event-driven model to handle a large number of concurrent connections simultaneously. This ensures that it maintains excellent performance even under high load and heavy traffic conditions.

Lightweight: With less code and minimal memory consumption, Nginx can operate efficiently in resource-constrained environments. It is also less prone to crashes under high load scenarios.

Scalability: Nginx supports numerous third-party modules, allowing users to customize and develop additional functionalities according to their needs.

High Reliability: Built on a stable and mature event-driven architecture, Nginx effectively avoids crashes caused by code errors or issues with third-party libraries, ensuring high service reliability.

Hot Deployment: Nginx supports updating configuration files and software upgrades without stopping the service, making maintenance and upgrades convenient.

High Customizability: Nginx can be highly customized to remove unnecessary modules and functions, reducing code bloat and resource wastage.

Software Functionality

Static File Service: Nginx excels in serving static resources, quickly responding to numerous static requests such as CSS, JavaScript, images, audio, and video files. This offloads the burden from other dynamic servers.

Reverse Proxy and Load Balancing: Acting as a reverse proxy server, Nginx optimizes request distribution and processing, evenly distributing the load across backend servers to enhance system availability and reliability.

Caching Server: Nginx can cache response results, reducing the load on backend servers and improving data access speed, thereby balancing access pressure.
