Which configuration can handle traffic spike better?

  1. nginx -> varnish -> apache
  2. nginx -> memcache -> apache

All the hosted sites are wordpress based. Can't use nginx as standalone as it is a cpanel server.

      Engintron works fine for me with optimised apache server, however, in production I use Litespeed :)

      nginx, memcache, remote DB (maybe your bottleneck is DB)

      Depends what your bottleneck is.

      Cache as much as you can on the app level. Then cache full page if/when possible.

      1 is Nginx in front of varnish in front of apache?
      Why not directly varnish or nginx > apache?

      Network is the bottleneck. Though I have not checked with real traffic. Tested with loader.io only.

    • datanoisedatanoise Member

      If network is your problem, gzip what you can, (https://nginx.org/en/docs/http/ngx_http_gzip_module.html) and set a long cache control - you can also serve static files from another server/vps or a CDN...
