Description

nginx [engine x] is an HTTP and reverse proxy server, as well as a mail proxy server. This version adds some patches to improve performance: * HPACK by Cloudflare * Dynamic TLS records Built with OpenSSL 3.5 (ABI-isolated openssl35 package) to support HTTP/3 with post-quantum X25519MLKEM768 key exchange, ensuring you're at the forefront of web technology. Be careful using this in production. This package merely addresses all the crazy folks who want you to compile NGINX to get the above features. The compiled NGINX is evil for many reasons. For more info, see: https://www.getpagespeed.com/server-setup/where-compilation-went-wrong The lesser, as well as faster evil is here. Packaged install is easier to use in production and is also easier to roll back to stable NGINX version in case there's an issue with those patches.

Built for Amazon Linux.
