Could nginx support the socket backend server(in different machines)?

Server NGINX

for several reasons,the backend servers are socket backend servers,and
nginx seems only support unix socket and http backend server.
is any way to achieve that?
thanks

no, your statement was wrong, using fastcgi, you can use network socket
(eg.
using spawn-fcgi)
some example:

sorry, to quickly pressing the send button ^^
just put the fastcgi server on another machine…

Unix domain sockets are not network sockets:

They work on localhost only. You will need to use HTTP proxying or
FastCGI.

Probably what you want to do is run an Nginx instance on each backend
server to communicate over the local socket to your app and then proxy
to those Nginx instances from your main Nginx instance over HTTP.

You should have a look at memcache module.
