Check out this infographic for key takeaways from our NGINX user survey about the state of app delivery in 2020: the rising dominance of microservices and containers, the most popular associated technologies, and the challenges faced by app delivery professionals.
Congrats to the Winners of the NGINX for Good Hackathon
We present the four winners of the 2020 NGINX Hackathon for Good, who each created an app to help people affected by a social issue, using NGINX Open Source and NGINX Unit. The winning apps address unemployment, social justice volunteerism, and transparency around charitable giving.
Three Key Takeaways from NGINX’s AMA Panel During AnsibleFest 2020
We feature answers from our experts to three key questions about NGINX automation asked at the panel discussion we held during AnsibleFest 2020: how official roles and collections add value, how to choose which tasks to automate, and why community input is so important.
Announcing the NGINX Core Collection for Ansible
Announcing the NGINX Core collection on Ansible, with three roles to help you automate installation and configuration of NGINX Open Source, NGINX Plus, and NGINX App Protect. The collection is available in both community and supported versions.
Automating Installation of WordPress with NGINX Unit on Ubuntu
We walk through a bash script for setting up a WordPress deployment on Ubuntu that's managed by NGINX Unit and uses NGINX for web serving. The resulting WordPress deployment is scriptable, supports Let’s Encrypt, and has production-ready settings.
Performance Testing NGINX Ingress Controllers in a Dynamic Kubernetes Cloud Environment
We compare the performance in a dynamic Kubernetes cloud environment of three NGINX Ingress Controllers (one from the Kubernetes community and two from F5 NGINX). As the number of pod replicas scales up and down, only the NGINX Ingress Controller based on F5 NGINX Plus doesn't incur high latencies.
The Essence of Sprint is Speed
We explore three factors that hamper the speed of software development and delivery: dev teams are battling fatigue, tools aren't automated, and infrastructure is too complex. Find out how NGINX Open Source, NGINX Plus, NGINX App Protect, and NGINX Controller can help.
SPNEGO for Kerberos
Dynamically loadable module for NGINX Open Source and NGINX Plus that supports SPNEGO for Kerberos authentication via the Generic Security Service Application Program Interface (GSS-API).
Best Practices for Managing Internal APIs
Internal APIs are the real powerhouse of the API economy. We review some of their key benefits (efficiency and cost savings among them) and outline best practices, which include using an API management solution and high-performance API gateways, and decoupling the control and data planes.
