Loads of Request Less memory footprint Use less CPU C10K Certified

Apache ---------- Processes Threads High Memory CPU Overhead PHP included as module (mod_php)

-------- Async model Single Thread Low Memory Less CPU PHP as separate proc. over FastCGI

• FastCGI

• PHP-FPM (FastCGI Process Manager)

• Bundled with PHP 5.3.3

Nginx with PHP

• persistent processes, ability to handle multiple requests.

• web server and gateway application communicate with sockets such as TCP

• web server forwards the client request to the gateway and receives the response within a single connection

• can be implemented on any platform with any programming language.

Nginx with PHP : FastCGI

server {

server_name mysite.com;

listen 80;

root /usr/share/mysite/www;

index index.html;

location / {

fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:9000;

fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME

$document_root$fastcgi_script_name;

fastcgi_param PATH_INFO $fastcgi_script_name;

include fastcgi_params;

Nginx with PHP : FastCGI

server {

server_name yourdomain.com;

large_client_header_buffers 4 8k;

root /var/www/joomla;

index index.php index.html;

location / {

try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?q=$request_uri;

location ~ \.php$ {

fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:9000;

fastcgi_index index.php;

include fastcgi_params;

fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME

$document_root$fastcgi_script_name;

Nginx with Joomla!

• FastCGI Process Manager

• Daemonizes PHP > background proc

• provides a command-line script for managing PHP proc

• configuration of FastCGI pools

• enhances some of the FastCGI internals

• increases error reporting

• script termination
