Nginx web server with SSL

-
Some Web sites, such as on-line stores, require secure communication (HTTPS) to protect credit-card transactions and customer information. Like Apache, Nginx supports HTTPS via an SSL module, and it’s very easy to set up. In this tutorial i use hostname srv-web01.nginx.vn with the ip address 10.11.218.251. First, you need to generate an SSL certificate. The openssl command will ask you a bunch of questions, but you simply can press Enter for each one: # yum install openssl # mkdir /etc/nginx/ssl # cd /etc/nginx/ssl # openssl req -new -x509 -nodes -days 265 -newkey rsa:2048 -out server.crt -keyout server.key Create a new config file called /etc/nginx/sites-available/nginx.vn, which contains the following: server { listen 443; server_name nginx.vn; root /var/www/nginx.vn index index.html index.htm access_log /var/log/nginx/nginx.vn-access.log; error_log /var/log/nginx/nginx.vn-error.log; ssl on; ssl_certificate /etc/nginx/ssl/server.crt; ssl_certificate_key ...

Using nginx as http load balancer

Image
Load balancing across multiple application instances is a commonly used technique for optimizing resource utilization, maximizing throughput, reducing latency, and ensuring fault-tolerant configurations. Nginx is a very efficient HTTP load balancer to distribute traffic to several application servers and to improve performance, scalability and reliability of web applications. Nginx Load balancing methods The following load balancing mechanisms (or methods) are supported in nginx: round-robin least-connected ip-hash See detail at http://nginx.org/en/docs/http/load_balancing.html Initialization Nginx Load Banlancing In this tutorial I use any hostname and ip addresses as follows: srv-lb01 (10.11.218.250) (Nginx load balancer) srv-web01 (10.11.218.251) ( Web server) srv-web02 (10.11.218.252) ( Web server) srv-web03 (10.11.218.253) ( Web server) Note: pointing nginx.vn to 10.11.218.250 (Replace nginx.vn with your real site name) Default load balancing c...
