Understanding Nginx: HTTP Server, Reverse Proxy, and Scalable Architecture

The article shows how adding HTML tags turns a plain‑text file into a web page, explains the need for an HTTP service to serve it, introduces reverse proxies for load‑balancing and address hiding, and outlines Nginx’s event‑driven architecture with master and worker processes, shared memory, proxy cache, multi‑protocol support, configurable modules, and scaling options, while warning of a single‑instance failure and recommending cluster mode.
