Nginx

Nginx balances load across multiple servers

Description

Nginx provides robust load balancing capabilities, distributing network or application traffic across multiple servers to ensure optimal resource use and prevent overload. It supports various algorithms, like round-robin and least connections, to efficiently route requests, enhancing application reliability and uptime. This feature is integral to its roles as a reverse proxy and web server, enabling seamless scalability for high-demand environments. By managing TCP/UDP and HTTP traffic, it maintains performance even during peak loads. Originally written by Igor Sysoev and open-sourced under the BSD license, Nginx is backed by F5, Inc. for enterprise needs, offering commercial support and tailored distributions for secure, high-availability infrastructures.
