Hahaha, I bet he isn't a leftie writing backwards. They just flipped the image in post. That's why there is no text or IBM logo on his clothes, because that would be backwards then. 😉
we can install Apache's modules separately. but nginx needs a re-compilation of binary if want to enable a new module. and another main difference is Nginx is event driven while apache is process driven. which means nginx can handle much more request on single thread but apache create new thread for every request. which makes nginx fast/more performant
@@braunbaerhh I think MPM is not the same as being Event Driven - In and ED model ( "reactive" ), there is no thread at all unless some activity is in progress. Ex:- A thread needs to make a backend call. Immediately after making the backend call ( using poll() system call ), the thread will switch to doing other unrelated tasks *instead of* being blocked. Whereas in MPM, thread will become free - but task is handed over to other threads.... This is my understanding. Somebody please comment/correct if Im wrong
Didn't really explain the differences between the two or gave any examples for which is better on certain aspects. The title of the video wasn't delivered
I just watched til the end based on you two donuts only to realize I sam being scammed. This video doesn't break up anything. MY mom knows things said in this video. What a bummer. The narrator is cool but the content is for simpletons.
It should also be noted that Apache uses a multi-threaded architecture with each request running in its own thread, while NGINX uses a single-threaded architecture with an event loop. Because of this, NGINX can handle many more simultaneous requests and is what gives it its speed advantage. In programmer terms, Apache acts like Java, NGINX acts like NodeJS.
The biggest difference I believe is .htaccess in Apache which gives granual control over user experience and security. If ASP had figured that out, they would not have been always playing catch up, however like most things popular, people start adding too many modules that slow everything down and you likely want to compile very carefully a stripped down version of Apache to use it, which is not advocated greatly. Nginx is perhaps geared towards being fast, secure, and the big companies have the money to partition off special purpose servers instead of relying on .htaccess, which is not a horrible strategy either. With the latest generations by AMD and Intel chips, you will only see the differences by testing in nano seconds, if you work for big data you have to learn these things.
I do wish people would stop saying "SSL" when they mean "TLS". Virtually no one uses SSL any longer. Browsers disabled or removed it years ago, and I'd be very surprised if any of IBM's web sites still support it.
Did you really write from right to the left on that screen that we can read it or what is the magic behind this cool presentation technique? Thanks for the Video and BR
Regarding the load balancing features, how does how would we sockets be handled as apposed to regular http requests which are simply routed the web servers need to hold open connections
So you mentioned I can use Nginx as a load lanancer infront of multiple Apache web servers. How would I go about setting up multiple Apache servers to serve the same one static site?
nginx Plus also does TCP and even UDP load balancing out of the box. I guess I've only ever used nginx Plus cause it does basically anything I want to do and has all the health checking and other stuff built in. If the backend runs Apache or Tomcat, then that's fine, but for load balancing I'm not sure why you'd use Apache unless you wanted complex solution to what should be a simple problem. Sure, nginx Plus costs money, but if you want a load balancing solution that doesn't, learn HAProxy, don't spend time learning Apache unless you have to.
@@muhdbunahmad Video lasts 7 min, but actually there is 4 words..... First/Extensible and Fast/Simple. I believe 7min video can serve much more info about Apache vs Nginx like title says.
I always wondered how do they make such videos as facing the camera and writing on some board right front of us. Then i noticed an odd thing. All these people in such videos were lefty. It means they were writing on a transparent board facing them and once after they were done, the video was mirrored using video editor software.
I don't know what goes on under the hood of apache or nginx, but having used apache for year and nginx now I can say nginx is a lot simpler and hell lot faster. If you're developing new solution in 2023, go with nginx without second thought. Apache will be legacy soon.
Wait. So, the connection from my computer to the actual server is covered by the TLS certificate NOT NECESSARILY all the way? And that shouldn't raise anybody's alarm?
Yes and no. It depends. Without a proxy, the final server decrypts your traffic anyway, so if the proxy and the final server are on the same private network, and it’s secure, that should be fine. In the other hand, if you use Cloudflare tunnels, they get to decrypt the traffic, look at it, then re-encrypt and send it to the actual server
So confused. So neither of these servers are for dynamic pages? Tomcat server is used for Java applications but what about non-java applications? Which server is used?
DNS, MAIL, TCP and UDP?? Are these four should stay in one sentence. Aren't they from different categories?? DNS can use TCP and UDP... So this statement as in this video is definitely confusing making people think that these protocols are on the same level
Thanks for the video! Just out of curious, why did you put the EXTENSIBLE parameter only to the Apache http server instead of both? Isn't NginX provide it?
yes nginx totally is extensible as well. one could even argue it is more extensible, given the ecosystem of nginx modules out there. But the IBM host has a bad habit of just cherry-picking some random attributes of the products under comparison and put it either left or right, wich I would define as a *bad* "versus" video. It's the second video I watch from this guy, and the second time I'm disappointed. Happy to see the encouraging comments above, which proves it seems helpful for beginners tho.
Mirrored the recorded video. I couldn't figure it out, I was thinking that's some kind of IBM technology. But somebody in comments said that they must have mirrored the video
Layer 4? Layer 7? The OSI model is obsolete. > I have said before that I believe that teaching modern students the OSI model as an approach to networking is a fundamental mistake that makes the concepts less clear rather than more. The major reason for this is simple: the OSI model was prescriptive of a specific network stack designed alongside it, and that network stack is not the one we use today. In fact, the TCP/IP stack we use today was intentionally designed differently from the OSI model for practical reasons. - j. b. crawford
I have worked with both and they both suck. Very good at the basics, but so hard to make them do anything complicated. It takes like 2 lines of rust code to enable cors... But try add cors at the reverse proxy level instead and get ready for hours of agony reading poor documentation.
This man has talent, and he is able to explain it in a very enjoyable way, and he can write backwards very fast. I need to up my game man...
Yes this threw me off cause I realized he was writing backwards
Hahaha, I bet he isn't a leftie writing backwards. They just flipped the image in post. That's why there is no text or IBM logo on his clothes, because that would be backwards then. 😉
They mirror the video after writing normally, that makes it look like they are writing backwards

thanks you, that's sound crucial for interview
@@francisantony12indeed, mpm is not an event module. Apache does have an *event* module which uses threads instead of processes, similar to NGINX

Apache is far more stable than nginx.

@@danilodistefanis5990Apache uses epoll. How is that not event driven?
I've been using both for many years, and I like the modules and configuration of nginx much better.
TLDR/TLDW: Apache is older but more mature (extensions) while nginx is newer and faster. Both can be used rather interchangeably though.
Great, I always enjoyed videos of IBM Tech, can you make a video explanation for ASGI and WSGI servers.
Amazing, always love your way to uncover technological nuances ❤
Thank you very much for this lesson! You’ve unlocked a bit of a mystery for me as I’m beginning my cloud journey! 🥳

Thank you, british man & ibm. Perfect explanation 🙏
Thank you very very much! Finally I understood it in a simple, clear and practical way. I'm your fan!
And then there is haproxy, which blows them away in terms of speed and resource usage. Plus it has many more modern features included by default.
HAproxy is the default router (ALB) for the OpenShift platform.
