NGINX Plus R20 builds on the enhancements made in R19 to rate limiting, adding real-time monitoring and logging; connection limiting now has the same features. We also added prefix matching in the key-value store, DNS resolution per upstream group, new PROXY Protocol variables, and improved security for HTTP/2.
We provide guidance on using NGINX to mitigate the recently discovered vulnerability in PHP-FPM (CVE-2019-11043). The vulnerability is triggered when the PATH_INFO variable passed to PHP-FPM with an invalid value, which can happen in a common NGINX configuration.
Release 1.5.0 of the NGINX Ingress Controller for Kubernetes introduces a new configuration schema, extended Prometheus-based metrics, simplifications to TLS configuration, support for load balancing traffic to ExternalName services, and a new repository for Helm charts.
From NGINX Conf 2019, kicking off today in Seattle, Gus Robertson outlines F5's vision for the future of the NGINX Application Platform. He previews innovations that will enable apps to sense, think, and respond like living organisms in the next wave of digital transformation.

Real-Time APIs: Trends and Adoption
APIs are playing an increasingly important role in digital transformation at enterprises, in every vertical and region. We review trends in API usage as reported by industry analyst IDC, and explain how NGINX solves the challenges that companies face in deploying and managing APIs.
Using NGINX as a DoT or DoH Gateway
DNS over TLS (DoT) and DNS over HTTPS (DoH) are two emerging technologies for securing Domain Name System (DNS) traffic. In this post we take a look at the history of DNS and show how to implement DoT, DoH, and a DNS filter using NGINX Open Source and NGINX Plus.
How Real-Time APIs Power Our Lives
Many popular mobile apps rely on "real-time" APIs, which can process an API call end-to-end in under 30 milliseconds. Explore many real-world examples --- ride hailing, cashierless stores, credit card fraud detection, and IoT -- and learn why you need NGINX, the only real-time API solution.
Tapping NGINX for AI-Powered Insight into API Traffic
PingIdentity provides an NGINX integration with its AI-driven solution for API security, PingIntelligence for APIs. The solution uses API metadata collected by NGINX to determine whether API clients are granted access. PingIntelligence for APIs also provides dashboards, reports, and anomaly detection.
Application Isolation With NGINX Unit
Application isolation in NGINX Unit enables you to control which types of system resources your apps share with NGINX Unit and each other. Running apps in isolated environments improves security. Get all the details on how it works, and what it means for the future of NGINX Unit.
The Microservices World of Tomorrow…Today
Microservices is one technology that is leading the march towards digital transformation in the world of application development. With their high performance and small footprint, NGINX and NGINX Plus are ideal for microservices, both as API gateways and Kubernetes Ingress controllers.
Enabling OpenTracing with the NGINX Ingress Controller for Kubernetes
Trace the traffic in your Kubernetes cluster end-to-end with native support for OpenTracing when using the NGINX and NGINX Plus Ingress Controllers for Kubernetes for load balancing. Our step-by-step instructions show you how to get started, using Docker containers and Jaeger.
APIs Need Secure and Scalable Delivery Too
Your APIs need the same level of security, scalability, and visibility as your web applications. API gateway functionality is built into NGINX Plus, together with its many other high-performance features. NGINX Controller manages your API gateways and provides full API lifecycle management.
When and How to Migrate Your F5 BIG-IP Hardware Load Balancer to NGINX Software
As enterprises adopt DevOps, frequent policy changes on hardware ADCs introduce risk and require testing by NetOps teams. Solve the problem by augmenting your ADCs with DevOps-friendly NGINX. Our resources will guide you as you research, evaluate, and implement NGINX.
NGINX Unit 1.11.0 Is Now Available, Introduces Static File Serving
NGINX Unit 1.11.0 introduces support for static file serving, a much requested feature ever since NGINX Unit debuted. It also includes application (process) isolation using Linux namespaces and a WebSocket server implementation for Java Servlet Containers. NGINX Unit 1.12.0 adds support for PHP 7.4.
