Where I’m from…


• MoNvaNon

• Nginx • PHP-‐FPM

•  IntegraNon • Caching • Load balancing • How this runs in Spelix

Agenda


Nginx


• Lightweight HTTP server • Fast especially at high load


Leading among top 10.000 websites


•  /etc/nginx/nginx.conf

Nginx SeTngs

# max_clients = worker_processes * worker_connections worker_processes [number of CPUs]; worker_connections 1024;


•  /etc/sysctl.conf

•  /etc/security/limits.conf

•  /etc/pam.d/su

•  /etc/default/nginx

Nginx High Load

fs.file-max = 80000

www-data soft nofile 40000 www-data hard nofile 70000

ULIMIT="-n 40000"

session required pam_limits.so


• 32768 concurrent requests

Nginx High Load

worker_processes 8; worker_rlimit_nofile 40000; events { worker_connections 4096; multi_accept on; }


PHP FastCGI Process Manager


• FastCGI Process Manager

• Available since 5.3.3, stable since 5.4.1 • Run mulNple PHP worker processes to serve CGI requests

• MulNple connecNon pools

• Different php.ini files possible • Very helpful: fastcgi_finish_request()

PHP-‐FPM


•  InstallaNon

• Pool configuraNon /etc/php5/fpm/pool.d/www.conf

PHP-‐FPM

[www] user = www-data group = www-data listen = 127.0.0.1:9000 # for Unix socket: unix:/var/run/php5-fpm.sock;

root@hzvm01:/etc/nginx/sites-enabled# ps -ef | grep php root 6435 1 0 14:39 ? 00:00:32 php-fpm: master process (/etc/php5/fpm/php-fpm.conf) spelix 6439 6435 0 14:39 ? 00:00:00 php-fpm: pool batch spelix 6440 6435 0 14:39 ? 00:00:00 php-fpm: pool batch www-data 10576 6435 1 18:45 ? 00:00:48 php-fpm: pool www www-data 10920 6435 1 18:47 ? 00:00:47 php-fpm: pool www www-data 10927 6435 1 18:47 ? 00:00:46 php-fpm: pool www

sudo apt-get install php5-fpm


• Process Manager

pm.max_children

= total available memory / memory used by 1 PHP process

PHP-‐FPM

[pool_name] ... pm = [dynamic/static] pm.max_children = 5 ; only used for dynamic: pm.start_servers = 2 pm.min_spare_servers = 1 pm.max_spare_servers = 3


• Security /etc/php5/fpm/php.ini

• Use mulNple configuraNons

PHP-‐FPM

/etc/init.d/php-fpm start or php-fpm -y /path/to/your/php-fpm.conf -c /path/to/your/php.ini

expose_php = Off


Nginx and PHP / IntegraNon


• CommunicaNon via sockets •  TCP vs Unix

•  Unix slightly faster when used on localhost

•  Use TCP for high load

Nginx and PHP

location ~* \.php$ { fastcgi_index index.php; fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:9000; include fastcgi_params; fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name; fastcgi_param SCRIPT_NAME $fastcgi_script_name; }

fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/php5-fpm.sock;


•  StaNc content to be served by Nginx •  Dynamic requests to be sent to PHP-‐FPM

IntegraNon

server { listen 80; root /var/www/test; index index.php index.html index.htm; server_name test.whateveryourdomain.is; location / { try_files $uri $uri/ @notfound; } location ~ \.(html|js|css|gif|jpg|jpe|jpeg|png|bmp|tif|pdf|ico)$ { try_files $uri @notfound; } location ~* \.php$ {

fastcgi_index index.php; fastcgi_pass php; include fastcgi_params; } locaation @notfound { ... }

}


Nginx – PHP transacNon flow


• Easy way to deploy your applicaNon • All source files packed into one *.phar file

PHAR – PHP Archives

location ~* \.(php|phar)$ { fastcgi_index index.php; fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:9000; include fastcgi_params; fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name; fastcgi_param SCRIPT_NAME $fastcgi_script_name; }

Performance


• Nginx running with default seTngs

• Apache •  AllowOverride None

•  MulN-‐process mode to allow usage of mod_php

• Nginx faster for serving staNc files • Apache is faster for serving PHP only (low load)

Apache vs Nginx -‐ conclusion


Nginx, Apache and PHP


• Setup caching and disable access logging

• Change Nmeouts

Nginx – more performance tweaks
