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 QuicTLS to support HTTP/3, ensuring you're at the forefront of web technology. And using a more recent GCC, version 8. 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.

nginx-mod-1.30.3-53.amzn2.gps.x86_64 1.1 MiB Danila Vershinin (2026-06-16)
- gps_license: bump to 1.4.0. New identity probe endpoint: send · Accept: application/vnd.getpagespeed.nginx-probe+json on any URL to · receive a 200 + JSON identifying the install (module version, nginx · version, package_source, current status/enforcement, distro, arch). · Doubles as a fleet-inventory + compliance-audit handle. Probe path is · not access-logged, emits no error_log lines, and is invisible on · non-probe requests. Runs at PREACCESS so it answers regardless of · enforcement state.

- gps_license: bump to 1.3.0. New FOOTER enforcement tier: when the · backend pushes enforcement=footer (or it is set locally), unlicensed · text/html responses get a small fixed-position GetPageSpeed notice · appended; the site stays fully up and the notice disappears once a · valid license token is installed. Default enforcement remains soft; · hard/503 stays reserved for revoked tokens. Filter registers in the · AUX slot so it runs before gzip.
nginx-mod-1.30.2-51.amzn2.gps.x86_64 1.0 MiB Danila Vershinin (2026-05-31)
- gps_license: bump to 1.2.0. Operator-facing 503s now point at · /nginx-license-token/ on getpagespeed.com (revoked / missing / · expired / invalid / unknown) and the 503 body is a centered nginx-style · HTML page with a "Restore access" button. The bare URL keeps serving · the generic page so older module versions still work.
