nginx
Web server and TLS endpoint inside service containers
About this program
The front end inside application containers. It terminates TLS where required, serves static assets and buffers slow clients away from the application process.
Features
- Static asset serving with long cache headers
- Gzip and Brotli compression
- Connection limits and request buffering
- A configuration language every administrator already knows
Why we chose it
Because it is the boring, correct answer for serving HTTP, and boring is a feature in the layer that everything else depends on.
