we can install Apache's modules separately. but nginx needs a re-compilation of binary if want to enable a new module. and another main difference is Nginx is event driven while apache is process driven. which means nginx can handle much more request on single thread but apache create new thread for every request. which makes nginx fast/more performant

@@braunbaerhh I think MPM is not the same as being Event Driven - In and ED model ( "reactive" ), there is no thread at all unless some activity is in progress. Ex:- A thread needs to make a backend call. Immediately after making the backend call ( using poll() system call ), the thread will switch to doing other unrelated tasks *instead of* being blocked. Whereas in MPM, thread will become free - but task is handed over to other threads.... This is my understanding. Somebody please comment/correct if Im wrong

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

Great, I always enjoyed videos of IBM Tech, can you make a video explanation for ASGI and WSGI servers.

I've been using both for many years, and I like the modules and configuration of nginx much better.

It should also be noted that Apache uses a multi-threaded architecture with each request running in its own thread, while NGINX uses a single-threaded architecture with an event loop. Because of this, NGINX can handle many more simultaneous requests and is what gives it its speed advantage. In programmer terms, Apache acts like Java, NGINX acts like NodeJS.

Such a pleasant and knowledgeable presenter. Fantastic delivery.

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

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

Amazing, always love your way to uncover technological nuances ❤

nginx Plus also does TCP and even UDP load balancing out of the box. I guess I've only ever used nginx Plus cause it does basically anything I want to do and has all the health checking and other stuff built in. If the backend runs Apache or Tomcat, then that's fine, but for load balancing I'm not sure why you'd use Apache unless you wanted complex solution to what should be a simple problem. Sure, nginx Plus costs money, but if you want a load balancing solution that doesn't, learn HAProxy, don't spend time learning Apache unless you have to.

Great explanation

And then there is haproxy, which blows them away in terms of speed and resource usage. Plus it has many more modern features included by default.

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

I always wondered how do they make such videos as facing the camera and writing on some board right front of us. Then i noticed an odd thing. All these people in such videos were lefty. It means they were writing on a transparent board facing them and once after they were done, the video was mirrored using video editor software.

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.

yes nginx totally is extensible as well. one could even argue it is more extensible, given the ecosystem of nginx modules out there. But the IBM host has a bad habit of just cherry-picking some random attributes of the products under comparison and put it either left or right, wich I would define as a *bad* "versus" video. It's the second video I watch from this guy, and the second time I'm disappointed. Happy to see the encouraging comments above, which proves it seems helpful for beginners tho.

So confused. So neither of these servers are for dynamic pages? Tomcat server is used for Java applications but what about non-java applications? Which server is used?

Wait. So, the connection from my computer to the actual server is covered by the TLS certificate NOT NECESSARILY all the way? And that shouldn't raise anybody's alarm?

Yes and no. It depends. Without a proxy, the final server decrypts your traffic anyway, so if the proxy and the final server are on the same private network, and it’s secure, that should be fine. In the other hand, if you use Cloudflare tunnels, they get to decrypt the traffic, look at it, then re-encrypt and send it to the actual server

Layer 4? Layer 7? The OSI model is obsolete. > I have said before that I believe that teaching modern students the OSI model as an approach to networking is a fundamental mistake that makes the concepts less clear rather than more. The major reason for this is simple: the OSI model was prescriptive of a specific network stack designed alongside it, and that network stack is not the one we use today. In fact, the TCP/IP stack we use today was intentionally designed differently from the OSI model for practical reasons. - j. b. crawford
