System Documentation

What problem does it solve?

Distributes traffic across multiple app backends and enables zero-downtime deployments by guiding nginx upstream configuration, health checking, and scalable routing strategies.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Upstream basics (Round Robin) to route requests across backend instances.
  • Weighted and health-check supported setups to balance load and maintain availability.
  • Multiple balancing algorithms (round robin, least connections, ip_hash) for different session models.
  • Zero-downtime deploy workflows and graceful reconfiguration to minimize user-perceived downtime.
  • Diagnostics and practical deployment guidance for Next.js and Laravel workloads.

Quick Start

Configure a basic upstream in your nginx site and verify load balancing across multiple backends.
