Nearly 20 years ago I read my first OReilly book, Learning Perl. Back then I never would have dreamed OReilly would someday publish a book written about the software I created, yet here we are today. I am honored to announce that later this year OReilly Media will publish one of their iconic animal books entitled nginx: A Practical Guide to High Performance, and Im delighted to offer you a preview edition download today. This five chapter preview covers: - How to install nginx - How to use nginx as a software load balancer - How to set up nginx as a reverse proxy for serving dynamic web applications - How to tune nginx for optimal performance and security - And more! I hope you enjoy the book. ---

Congratulations. When I think back ~10 Years ago I’m sure you have not thought that nginx could be THAT popular, haven’t you ;-). Thank you that you have started to create nginx.

I requested it a few days ago. It was a little confusing. The link was circular… You get a link to request a copy which gets you a link to request a copy. But the email had a pdf attachment and that was the book if I recall correctly… I really like nginx and the thinking of the people behind it. Thank you!
