NGINX is a software that is based on the Open Source License System and we are able to use it and modify it to fit our customer’s needs without forcing our customers to purchase a license

NGINX is a web server, but also a proxy server, and one of the most widely used functions of NGINX is its proxy technology. When you deploy NGINX as a reverse proxy or load balancer, you can enable powerful cache features. NGINX allows us to be able to store your whole page into memory and serve from memory rather than having to execute code each time your page is visited. This allows for a fast response since none of the underlying code needs to be executed for a particular page.

PHP-FPM is one of the newest PHP handlers that are available. Moving from SuPHP to PHP-FPM will decrease your site’s load time as well as the system resource usage.

This happens by enabling caching and serving from memory static PHP that is not going to change or cause changes on your site. It is built off of the PHP FastCGI Handler and is designed for speed, privacy, and performance.

By utilizing PHP-FPM rather than the old suPHP handler it allows us to lower resource utilization and decrease load time by caching the underlying PHP code, which seldom changes.
