Nginx
Nginx is a high-performance web server, reverse proxy, and load balancer. It is known for its efficiency, stability, rich feature set, simple configuration, and low resource consumption. Nginx excels in serving static content and is highly adept at handling concurrent connections with minimal memory and CPU usage. It's often used to improve the performance and scalability of websites and applications by managing traffic and optimizing content delivery.
