The reverse proxy product that does everything you need
What do you like best?
The best feature of nginx is its reliability and simplicity. It's very easy to start - when it start it installs the default "pure html" website. It's compatible with all web-add-on on the market. And its free version is capable to provide all that developer needs. It forces developer to use best practices and do not leave major vulnerabilities.
Nginx is free and it was my choice to host all our websites. It has a huge popularity, so any question on Stack Overflow is answered immediately.
What do you dislike?
It's documentation is not logically structured and contains "long sentences that does have much sense". It's probably was automatically translated from Russian language.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Just try to use nginx especially with nodejs or simple html websites. Use letsencrypt to automatically generate SSL certificate
What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?
Website hosting, the major advantage that it has anything the major web-developer needs, generate logs that can be analyzed by almost all log-analytical system.
