Non-http upstream server

Server NGINX
1

Hi,

Is there any way that I can develop a nginx module that talk to a
non-http upstream server? These can be remote FTP servers or database
server. Any suggestion that this can be done without affecting the
efficiency of the main event loop? I do not want to block on the request
to the non-http upstream server.

Thanks.

See the memcache module as a example:
