Advanced Recipes for High Performance Load Balancing
Sorry, there aren’t any holiday cookie recipes here. What you will find in this 2019 update to the NGINX Cookbook, though, are some advanced techniques for high performance load balancing.
In this ebook, you'll learn:
How to configure content caching, load balancing, monitoring, high availability (HA), the Random with Two Choices load-balancing algorithm for clustered environments, and other critical NGINX features
How to protect your applications: mitigate DDoS attacks, stop Layer 7 attacks, and configure single sign-on with OpenID
How to deploy NGINX and NGINX Plus in AWS, Azure, and GCP as well as in Docker containers
How to monitor and troubleshoot application performance with NGINX
This is the perfect technical book: short chapters with problem/solution paragraphs that goes straight to the point. You'll read it fast and it will be an effective learning. Not the kind of 500 pages expert book, you have all what you need to start to work straight away.
This books gives an overall view of the things you can achieve with nginx with examples of each of those things. I found it quite useful to get a better understanding of nginx.
Коротенькая книга для тех, кто любит бумажные книги - вместо чтения офф. документации, можно прочитать книгу и найти парочку новых идей.
Отдельного упоминания стоит русское издание от ДМК - переводили в гугл.транслейте 100%. Читать невозможно. Вероятно, сам автор оригинала наливал много воды в текст, а вода + гугл.транслейт = жесть. Спасает, что все достаточно очевидно и можно "понять что имел в виду автор".
