What is Tengine?

Tengine, created by Taobao, the leading e-commerce platform in Asia, is an advanced web server built on the Nginx HTTP server, offering a variety of sophisticated features. Known for its remarkable stability and efficiency, Tengine powers several of the world’s top 100 websites, including its parent company Taobao and Tmall. Since its transition to an open-source project in December 2011, Tengine has flourished, driven by a committed team comprising core members from Taobao, Sogou, and other internet companies, while also encouraging community contributions from developers around the globe. Importantly, Tengine retains all functionalities from Nginx-1.17.3, ensuring seamless compatibility with its predecessor. It supports the CONNECT HTTP method for forward proxying and enhances operational monitoring with features such as asynchronous logging, rollback capabilities, DNS caching, and memory tracking. Additionally, Tengine significantly boosts performance by permitting unbuffered uploads straight to HTTP and FastCGI backend servers, which minimizes disk I/O operations. The server also integrates various load balancing strategies, including consistent hashing, session persistence, and upstream health checks, establishing itself as a robust option for contemporary web applications. There is no doubt that Tengine represents a vital resource for developers in search of a dependable and comprehensive web server solution.
