nginx-configuration

Production-grade Nginx configuration for reverse proxying, load balancing, SSL/TLS termination, and API gateway patterns. Master Nginx configuration for production-grade web servers, reverse proxies, load balancing, SSL termination, caching, and API gateway patterns with advanced performance tuning. Minimal working example: Detailed implementations in the references/ directory: - Covers eight primary use cases: reverse proxy setup, load balancing, SSL termination, HTTP/2 and gRPC support, caching, rate limiting, URL rewriting, and API gateway functionality - Includes reference guides for production configuration, HTTPS with load balancing, automated setup scripts, and monitoring integration - Best practices section highlights performance tuning (HTTP/2, gzip, connection pooling), security hardening (strong ciphers, security headers), and operational patterns (health checks, least_conn balancing, log separation) - Overview - When to Use - Quick Start - Reference Guides - Best Practices - Reverse proxy setup - Load balancing between backend services - SSL/TLS termination - HTTP/2 and gRPC support - Caching and compression - Rate limiting and DDoS protection - URL rewriting and routing - API gateway functionality - Use HTTP/2 for performance - Enable SSL/TLS with strong ciphers - Implement proper caching strategies - Use upstream connection pooling - Monitor with stub_status or...
