Hi all, I'm looking for some guidance with Nginx. We have inherited a web-server that experiences heavy load. The server is running: Ubuntu Server 12.4, 24 Cores, 50~GB RAM.
The CPU usage during peak time is 100%. Memory is about 50%. The client has asked that we configure Nginx to give the best user experience for the first X number of visitors while the others are 503'd. So a visitor to the website can experience good usage from start to purchase (it's a commerce site). While others who visit (over a threshold) would get 503 errors. This would ensure that, if you can get in, your experience would be nice. If you can't, 503 and try again later. I see there are some modules that can do this with a recompile but we'd rather not go down that path at this stage. Given that http is session-less, i suppose cookies have been used to achieve this. Or based on IP address. Any thoughts? -- -Andrew Galdes Managing Director RHCSA, LPI, CCENT AGIX Linux Ph: 08 7324 4429 Mb: 0422 927 598 Site: http://www.agix.com.au Twitter: http://twitter.com/agixlinux LinkedIn: http://au.linkedin.com/in/andrewgaldes
