About the F5 NGINX

NGINX was created by Igor Sysoev to solve the C10K problem and quickly gained adoption for its efficient event-driven architecture enabling massive concurrent connection handling. F5 acquired NGINX, Inc. in 2019 to integrate its software into F5’s portfolio, expanding it to include advanced load balancing, API gateways, security (WAF, DDoS protection), analytics, and SaaS solutions like NGINX One. NGINX supports HTTP/2 and HTTP/3, container orchestration integrations, and extensive customization via njs scripting and modules. The commercial offerings (NGINX Plus) include multi-cloud support, real-time observability, and 24-month technical support per release cycle.
