[@ansismaleckis1296]

Great content! Would be nice to include encryption and https. Also for load-balancing it would be cool if each instance was also served by NGINX.

[@quackbo1]

It's criminal that nginx has been around forever but this is just recently posted. Great work!

[@bobhutchinson3638]

What nginx setup would be for load balancer if nginx was containerised as well?

[@basavarajdarur2482]

Thank you

[@OlindoPindaro]

I can use socket5 protocoll on nginx?

[@alexdin1565]

please more videos about Nginx and Docker

[@sajjadhematinourani9959]

excellent

[@rishiraj2548]

Thanks

[@xliquidflames]

6:30 So, why doesn't the NGINX server ever get bogged down? How come the load balancing server can handle millions of users at once but the servers can't?

[@fariduzzamaansari1656]

Because it's not processing the request, just forwarding it.

[@desalewsalew4633]

👍👍👍

[@DevanshSaxena-wz3op]

Please make a course on advance java (J2EE)

[@ghostkee5031]

is it so hard for you to use lunix machine or remote server as the main OS for this course as its the only OS where nginx is useful, you cant have a mac server !

[@megatron324]

NICE

[@user-fd3yr5eo4g]

that was a great course, please create one for kestrel

[@ashlok2003]

Can you make video on webhooks ?? 🙏

[@moukafaslouka4796]

Where does nginx reside? You made it look as if it's residing outside of the web server.

[@acegear]

i have a question can nginx cache youtube videos , the areas where my nephews have bad to worse internet i was thingking of using it with some smb or old laptop to cache those vidoes those kids tend to repeat what they watch , i have read some old article google is trying to prevent those caching on them

[@fuesto]

That is great, thank you very very much! I am not trying to be ungrateful or anything but it would be great if you could do the same for an Apache as well, maybe in the future??? Thanks.

[@user-ij4uw3qv8n]

My Nginx is having some issue when a user is uploading a file to frog. Nginx shows jfrog error, "cannot allocate memory". I have given the container 15gb of memory and yet i still encounter this issue. Anyone has any idea?

[@orbitxyz7867]

Full video apache also ❤🙏

[@lemonbitter7641]

Please bring robotics with ROS course
