What is NGINX Unit?

NGINX Unit is a flexible web application server that consolidates various components of the standard application stack into one cohesive unit, thereby optimizing the architecture for both web applications and APIs. Serving as a universal platform, it supports a wide range of web environments, from extensive enterprise applications to individual personal sites. Its strength lies not only in facilitating modern microservices architectures but also in the ability to modernize legacy monolithic applications. Crafted by the original creators of NGINX, this innovative platform is constructed from a brand-new open-source codebase. The design benefits from over a decade of insights gained from managing the world's most popular web server. Unlike the conventional NGINX web server, which primarily operates as a reverse proxy for web applications, NGINX Unit can directly run application code, offering a distinctive advantage. This capability makes it particularly appealing to developers aiming to boost both performance and operational efficiency, ultimately positioning NGINX Unit as a valuable tool in the arsenal of modern web development.
