We performed a comparison between JBoss Enterprise Application Platform and NGINX Plus based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Application Infrastructure solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Stable and easy to handle in terms of hosting applications."
"The most valuable features of this solution are scalability and performance."
"The solution is quite stable."
"Its technical support is excellent."
"It's convenient and barebone."
"Nginx is simple to configure, very stable in a highly utilized environment and very modular, allowing DevOps to create it's own modules for interactive use with Nginx."
"I need to highlight that the number one thing about NGINX is that it is free."
"Its versatility and capabilities make it invaluable for implementing patches and fixes when necessary."
"The flexibility of its modules allow it to be scalable."
"Nginx is extremely efficient in terms of the connection rate to the CPU cycles ratio, and in terms of the bandwidth to CPU cycles."
"I find the solution’s community support and documentation most valuable. Compared to HAProxy, have found a lot of documentation and community support on Quora. If you would be asking me as a developer whether to choose this product, I would recommend this since it has good community support, documentation, and signature updates. The configuration of HAProxy is also very tedious. However, NGINX’s configuration is very simple."
"The product is lightweight and fast."
"The web proxy and the database proxy are excellent."
"It's hard to find out the root cause of errors."
"Lacks some functional requirements."
"Its architecture needs improvement."
"A graphic user interface can be added."
"This solution needs better management UI."
"I would like to see the Grafana integration in NGINX which is already present in HAProxy. Grafana integration will help the solution visualize all the data analytics on the dashboard which is currently not present."
"The user interface could be improved."
"Make modules easier to enable or disable. The beauty and ugly side of the NGINX modules is you have to know how to compile the module. For beginners or non-very technical aspirant(s) going for NGINX, they have to learn how to compile the modules."
"Our most challenging part was to run an older PHP website reverse-proxied through NGINX. That was not fun."
"It would be good if NGINX provided a graphical user interface."
"The biggest room for improvement would be to allow NGINX Core machines to cluster for memory zones in some way with a plug and play module. "
"Only improvement needed that I would point to is scalability. With it, I mean clusterized organisation on a low level. At the moment, the best alternative is RHEL HA."
"The center management system could be improved."
