nginx 0.8.51发布,nginx 服务器软件0.8 分支进入稳定版本。
Nginx(engine x)是一个高性能的HTTP和反向代理服务器,也是一个IMAP/POP3/SMTP代理服务器。Nginx是由Igor Sysoev为俄罗斯访问量第二的Rambler.ru(俄文:Рамблер)站点开发的。它已经在该站点运行超过三年了。其特点是占有内存少,并发能 力强,事实上Nginx的并发能力确实在同类型的web服务器中表现最好。目前中国大陆使用Nginx网站用户有:新浪、网易、腾讯、豆瓣……本人也是Nginx的用户与坚定fans!
此软件BSD-like协议下发行,可以在UNIX、GNU/Linux、BSD、Mac OS X、Solaris,以及Windows等操作系统中运行。
W3Techs报告显示,Alexa全球流量前1万名的网站中,有5.1%使用nginx。 仅次于Apache(70.2%)和IIS(20.5%),居第三位。而在Google评选出的全球流量前1000名网站中,nginx使用率是13.7%,Apache是46.5%,IIS是14.9%。
这表面了,越是大型网站,使用nginx的比例越高!nginx也是用户增长最快的web服务器软件。
