nginx（发音同 engine x）是一款轻量级的Web 服务器／反向代理服务器及电子邮件（IMAP/POP3）代理服务器，并在一个BSD-like 协议下发行。由俄罗斯的程序设计师Igor Sysoev所开发，最初供俄国大型的入口网站及搜寻引擎Rambler（俄文：Рамблер）使用。其特点是占有内存少，并发能力强，事实上nginx的并发能力确实在同类型的网页伺服器中表现较好.目前中国大陆使用nginx网站用户有：新浪、网易、腾讯,另外知名的微网志Plurk也使用nginx。Changes with nginx 0.8.53                                        18 Oct 2010

    *) Feature: now the "error_page" directive allows to change a status
       code in a redirect.

    *) Feature: the "gzip_disable" directive supports special "degradation"
       mask.

    *) Bugfix: a socket leak might occurred if file AIO was used.
       Thanks to Maxim Dounin.

    *) Bugfix: if the first server had no "listen" directive and there was
       no explicit default server, then a next server with a "listen"
       directive became the default server; the bug had appeared in 0.8.21.
