With NGINX you can handle concurrent connections with ultimate efficiency, achieve extreme performance for static content and streaming video, conserve server and network resources by caching repetitive content, offload your backend infrastructure from SSL and compression, securely integrate your applications servers and data storage, and more.

NGINX has the lowest memory footprint possible for real-life applications, and optimizes CPU usage while delivering maximum performance even on a generic server hardware. NGINX scales very well on a variety of architectures including multi-core platforms, thanks to its compact modular design and advanced use of modern programming interfaces.

NGINX's unique ability to deliver tenfold performance increase on existing hardware, while serving many thousands of concurrent users per server, combined with its lean architecture, efficient set of features, scalability and security, have made it the fastest and the only growing web server in the world. With the ever-increasing number of NGINX installations there's in fact a new trend in place towards a better architected web infrastructure—the one based on the true separation of applications and the web server, with the concurrency, compression, request routing and caching offloaded to the dedicated and capable software.

Since 2004 NGINX has already helped thousands of companies worldwide to survive increasing workloads and to dynamically develop their online infrastructure and their business by moving towards better architected web services.

For a service provider or any Internet organization trying to optimize ROI and total cost of ownership, advanced architecture and flexibility of NGINX, as well as its greener environmental footprint, can serve as a great foundation to develop more competitive advantages upon.
