NGINX Plus Now Available for Latest Generation of ARM-Based 64-bit Servers
Leading Application Acceleration Solution Now Supported on ARMv8-A Architecture for Powering Hyperscale Workloads
SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 21, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Nginx Inc., the high performance web acceleration company, today announced that NGINX Plus, its commercial load balancer and web accelerator, is now available for the latest generation of powerful and efficient servers based on ARM® 64-bit capable processors. NGINX Plus brings advanced features and commercial support to enterprises and cloud service providers that need to quickly and efficiently scale their web tier to meet rapidly expanding growth in users, content and subscribers.

"NGINX Plus on ARM-based 64-bit processors delivers unparalleled agility and scale for data centers keen on matching compute resources to their web application architectures," said Gus Robertson, CEO of Nginx, Inc. "This is a natural fit for NGINX, relied on by the busiest websites in the world for accelerating and delivering their applications to any device. We're excited to bring these capabilities to the ARM Platform."
NGINX Plus is optimized for the latest ARM-based 64-bit processors to take full advantage of its expanded memory addressing, multi-core architecture and high speed networking capabilities. Customers can scale to millions of concurrent connections with fewer servers minimizing data center footprint, complexity and TCO. When combined with the energy-efficiency of ARM-based 64-bit servers, requirements for power and space are also significantly reduced.
"The connected world drives greater traffic from domestic, business and industrial applications which must be handled efficiently by data centers," said Lakshmi Mandyam, Director of Server Systems and Ecosystems, ARM. "ARM servers are beginning to shape the future of the data center, and a vibrant software ecosystem is critical to realizing their potential. NGINX Plus is a welcome addition, enabling developers and administrators to implement dynamic, web-enabled applications and hyperscale workloads that will demonstrate the energy-efficiency benefits of ARM-based 64-bit processors."
Based on a modern, mobile-optimized architecture, NGINX Plus is built from the ground up to scale predictably and efficiently, enabling low latency at high concurrency for web traffic and applications. NGINX Plus advanced features include load balancing, caching, session persistence, health-checks and monitoring to help ensure that applications and services are both available and scalable across unpredictable spikes in demand. NGINX Plus is software-based, providing maximum flexibility and agility for deployment on cloud-based networks and can be scaled to meet increasing levels of traffic without bandwidth limitations, further minimizing overall costs.
"Mobile, rich content and critical web applications are driving the need for greater levels of web performance for today's power and space constrained operators," said Paul Santeler, VP and GM Moonshot, HP. "The combination of NGINX Plus with the HP Moonshot Web Infrastructure in-a-box solution is an efficient, scalable and economical platform to meet the growing web demands of our joint customers."
