Complete NGINX Cookbook

Learn ways to manage the operations and deployment of NGINX in the third and final installment of this practical cookbook. After presenting recipes on load balancing and security in the first two parts of this guide, part three focuses on methods for monitoring and maintaining the application delivery platform of both NGINX and NGINX Plus, the free and licensed versions of this open source server. NGINX is one of the most widely used web servers in use today because it also acts as a load balancer and a reverse proxy server for HTTP and other network protocols. In this installment, author Derek DeJonghe provides more than 30 recipes to help you deploy NGINX to Amazon Web Services, Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud Compute, with the help of Docker containers.
