NGINX Unit 1.0, a multi-language applications server, launched today. Unit supports Python, PHP, Perl, Ruby, and Go, with more languages to come. Unit is dynamically configured using a REST API; there are no process reloads or service interruptions required for configuration changes to take effect.
NGINX Unit supports PHP, which is very widely used for web programming. NGINX Unit therefore supports WordPress, written in PHP, and which is a content management system and application used by more than 30% of the sites on the Web. Use this blog post to install Unit and NGINX together with WordPress.
NGINX Plus R15 introduces native gRPC proxying (used by Istio and other service mesh architectures), HTTP/2 server push, state sharing in a cluster, API gateway enhancements, OpenID Connect integration, NGINX JavaScript (njs) module enhancements, a new ALPN variable, dynamic module updates, and more.
NGINX now proxies gRPC traffic, so you can terminate, inspect, and route gRPC method calls. Manage encryption and load balance gRPC traffic.
