Today at NGINX Sprint 2.0, we're announcing how we'll support our vision for the future of moderns app with a bigger presence in the open source community, including participation in the community Kubernetes project, new OSS projects, and the Modern Apps Reference Architecture.

NGINX Unit makes supporting HTTPS simple and completely application-agnostic, because encryption is applied at the level of the listener, not the application. No need to dig into language‑specific details! In this blog we illustrate HTTPS configuration for a Spring Boot application.

We recently updated the NGINX Ingress Controller solution brief with sizing guidelines for Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS). In this blog, we explain how we came up with the guidelines, including all the information you need to do similar testing of your own.

NGINX Unit 1.23.0 and 1.24.0 introduce support for the SNI extension to TLS, definition of OpenSSL configuration commands, MIME filtering and path restrictions for static content, and multiple Python scripts in one app. Also, you no longer need to modify Node.js apps to run them in Unit.

The NGINX Controller App Security add-on for Controller API Management provides an app-centric, self-service way for app teams to boost their API security with integrated WAF protection. Security teams can still define policies and monitor APIs for compliance.

Preview the seven demos presented by the NGINX team on August 24 at NGINX Sprint 2021, our annual virtual event. We show how NGINX solutions accelerate just about every step in your app development journey, from deploying the first reverse proxy to launching a service mesh.

TCP load balancing of MySQL nodes in a Galera cluster takes advantage of NGINX Plus' advanced features, including high availability, health checks, logging, and monitoring. We also use NGINX JavaScript to extract the contents of request and response packets for logging the SQL method in each client request.

Dive deep into two Linux features that underlie containers: namespaces and cgroups. They enable process isolation, ensuring that multiple processes running on a system don't interfere with one another. Our NGINX Unit application server also uses them for application isolation.

Traffic surges and server overload are serious concerns for online retailers anytime, but especially during the year-end "Cyber Season" of shopping. We detail ways you can leverage NGINX's production-grade app delivery solutions to prepare for sudden traffic spikes.

It's easier than ever to set up a production-grade Kubernetes deployment in AWS. Purchase the NGINX Plus-based version of NGINX Ingress Controller, with or without NGINX App Protect, directly from AWS Marketplace for Containers.
