Pro-tip: Scaling properly with Nginx worker_process and max_pool_size
Sometimes, it the things around us that work but need to be configured properly to scale up. Nginx configuration are just like that.
Shweta talks about her experience with scaling up performance by tweaking the nginx parameters to improve API performance drastically.
This post talks about worker_process and passenger_max_pool_size options for nginx and how these configurations play an important role for scalability.
Recently our client reported that API performance was bad and it was taking a few minutes to respond! But, when we tested this API this was quite efficient and was responding in few milliseconds. What was wrong? As the number of users increased, the number of concurrent requests to the server had also increased.
