Overview What You Will Learn Curriculum Instructor

Course Overview

Webservice, Load balancer, Traffic management, Content Caching, and Security controls are the challenging components of IT infrastructure projects. Nginx is a well-known application to provide all these features and many more. NGINX is open-source software for web serving, reverse proxying, caching, load balancing, media streaming, and more. It started as a web server designed for maximum performance and stability. NGINX deployments and configurations include load balancing, caching, security, cloud deployment, automation, containers and microservices, high availability, performance tuning, and more.  The goal behind NGINX was to create the fastest web server around, and maintaining that excellence is still a central goal of the project. NGINX consistently beats Apache and other servers in benchmarks measuring web server performance.

The course begins with the fundamental concepts of web services and load balancers, and you will explore the step-by-step guide from the installation of Nginx to configuring it practically. The goal behind NGINX was to create the fastest web server around, and maintaining that excellence is still a central goal of the project. NGINX consistently beats Apache and other servers in benchmarks measuring web server performance. Since the original release of NGINX, however, websites have expanded from simple HTML pages to dynamic, multifaceted content. NGINX has grown along with it and now supports all the components of the modern Web, including WebSocket, HTTP/2, gRPC, and streaming of multiple video formats (HDS, HLS, RTMP, and others).
