Apache or Nginx?

    nginx' configs are not as straightforward for me as Apache's. As long as I never need a high-performance setup, I use Apache.

    Nginx has better performance

    Go for nginx. Apache is like chrome. It eats a lot of RAM. And Nginx has way better performance (higher connection amount)

    Well, generally speaking Apache is powerful, it can be used in development phases but it also has good performance on production environment. In the other hand I personally think that nginx has better performance in production (if you're able to configure it properly), it exposes a good configuration interface in working with virtual servers (in the case you need to serve multiple sites on the same machine) and finally it has a very mature load balancing and cacheing architecture.

    Nginx for me always. Easier and fast (imo).

    Both, depending on what you need.
    You can always proxy one through the other and get the best of two worlds.

    @linuxxx sure. I know about the benefits. But I'm not that linux guru you are and I'm afraid of the configuration. Do you remember helping me on Apache? 😓

    @Wombat Not really 😅

    But I personally find nginx more logical than Apache as for configuration

    Nginx. Fast and powerful

    @linuxxx I probably will give it a try soon. I am going to rent a droplet at Digital Ocean.

    Nginx reverse proxy before an Apache. That gives the performance of Nginx together with the ease of Apache's htaccess.

    If you need high performance, nginx
    For everything else, there’s Apache + scalable servers and a load balancer.

    Apache with MPM - almost same performance as nginx and easier to configure.
    If you need .htaccess - apache is the one.

    Nginx for prod.
    Apache for testing and experimenting.

    @Wombat 300$ of free trial on google cloud dude 😉

    I'll vote for CADDYYYYY
    But nginx>am imo, it's so easy to configure + to use with certbot (for https)

    Apache spark? Still nginx

    Both work well, so it depends on what you're comfortable with, but pick nginx.

    It has a slightly steeper learning curve, but it's definitely worthwhile. Also: better performance.

    Nginx without a doubt.

    Nginx.

    Config is easy, consumes less ram than Apache and
    SOUNDS BADASS.

    Nginx. Felt like there was a steep learning curve when I first started working on it but was simple once l got the hang of it...
