NGINX Unit

Version 1.9.0 has been released, featuring arguments, cookies, and headers support in internal request routing and POST semantics for arrays.

NGINX Unit is a key component in our modern platform spans from code to customer: it's configured dynamically via API for no app downtime; it can run apps written in multiple languages and versions at the same time; its small footprint makes it ideal for microservices and deployable on any infrastructure.

The goal was to compare the characteristics of services under different loads and find the best option.

NGINX Unit 1.8.0 introduces internal routing of requests based on host, URL, and HTTP method. This sets the framework for full Layer 7 request processing, necessary for further development of Unit's web server functionality.

Version 1.8.0 has been released, featuring internal request routing and experimental Java Servlet Containers support.

Version 1.7.1 has been released, with a vulnerability fix in the router process (CVE-2019-7401).

Version 1.7 has been released, featuring improved Node.js support with a number of bugfixes.

With NGINX Unit, configuring a new application in an existing production environment does not disrupt existing apps or require configuration reloads. Here are all the relevant commands and configuration from Amanda Bockoven's demo at NGINX Conf 2018.

NGINX Unit its a new way to deploy your microservices and nanoservices, its very nice way to do Python Falcon apps and its will be easy for you over time to management your apps.
