Zunguka to Ditch Apache Web Server

by Idd Salim on Nov.06, 2009, under Symbiotic, Zunguka

Starting December 2009, Zunguka, Tarazaki, TumaSMS, PashaHabari, Citizen Tv and all websites under the Symbiotic stable will switch from the Combo of Apache and Lighttpd proxy to a single solid setup of Nginx.

No service downtimes are expected and the only thing that will change is speeds and death to the bloated experience.

One process of Nginx will server as a master [serving PHP and Python files], and another will serve as a slave [Serving Images, Flash, Videos, CSS and Javascript files].

A test of the new setup can be accessed through the self-signed secure site :

More later.
