Apache vs NGINX

Web server vs. application server: https://ibm.biz/Apache_Vs_NGINX

NGINX Reverse Proxy: https://ibm.biz/NGINX_proxy

If you’re into web development, you have undoubtedly heard of Apache and Nginx. They’re both open source web servers, but they have different strengths, and both are worth considering as part of your web architecture choices. Is speed at all costs your thing? Or extensibility? In this video, Martin Keen explains how these web servers work and then breaks down the tradeoffs of each solution (spoiler: it’s not an either/or answer).

  • Fanatistic quick explanation of different considerations when looking at web server performance. Great start to answering the question. Thank you

  • Thank you, british man & ibm. Perfect explanation 🙏

  • Apache or NGINX are free????, don't worry IBM will find away to charge you…..

  • whole video summarized: apache = older, enterprise extensible || nginx = newer, fast simple

  • Regarding the load balancing features, how does how would we sockets be handled as apposed to regular http requests which are simply routed the web servers need to hold open connections

  • Layer 7 not 7 layer. Other than that, good video. Didn't know IBM made these. Optional SSL… 🤐 (in the cluster only right?)

  • Great resource of knowledge, high quality, very concise and to the point. I so much appreciate it. Thanks.

  • Aren't Nginx and Ngrok the same thing?

    Like for web tunneling+ reverse proxy

  • Such a pleasant and knowledgeable presenter. Fantastic delivery.

  • is he writing on that thing backwards ?

  • Does anyone knows how to make a video like this? with this "invisible blackboard" ?

  • My question is: how did you do this "writing on glass effect" it blows my mind you are facing the camera, are you writing backword or what?

  • TLDR/TLDW: Apache is older but more mature (extensions) while nginx is newer and faster. Both can be used rather interchangeably though.

  • I don't know what goes on under the hood of apache or nginx, but having used apache for year and nginx now I can say nginx is a lot simpler and hell lot faster. If you're developing new solution in 2023, go with nginx without second thought. Apache will be legacy soon.
