NGINX -1
NGINX is an open-source reverse proxy and web server designed for scale. It exploded in popularity as the first line of defense against backend infrastructures. Whether as a caching layer, load balancer, API gateway, or Web server, NGINX does it all.
A reverse proxy server is a server that sits in front of web servers and directs client requests to the appropriate web server. This configuration can be used to improve the security, scalability, and reliability of web applications.
Install Nginx
Install nginx using the following command
apt-get update
apt-get install nginx
After accepting the procedure, apt-get will install Nginx and any required dependencies to your server.
systemctl stop nginx
systemctl start nginx
systemctl restart nginx
systemctl reload nginx
By default, NGINX is configured to start automatically when the server boots. If this is not what you want, you can disable this behavior by typing:
systemctl disable nginx
