A company runs a legacy Apache server with many .htaccess files that contain complex rewrite rules and access controls. They want to migrate to NGINX but are concerned about the effort. What is the most accurate assessment of the migration effort?

NGINX can read .htaccess files if the ngx_http_htaccess_module is enabled

The migration is trivial because NGINX uses the same rewrite syntax as Apache

The migration is impossible because NGINX cannot perform URL rewriting

All .htaccess logic must be translated into NGINX configuration directives within server or location blocks

A company is evaluating web servers for a new microservices architecture. Each microservice is a separate HTTP service, and they need a single entry point that can route requests to different services based on the URL path. They also need to handle WebSocket connections for real-time features. Which server is best suited for this?

A simple static file server, because microservices do not need a reverse proxy

IIS, because it is the only server that supports WebSockets

NGINX, because it supports reverse proxying, URL-based routing, and WebSocket proxying

Apache, because it has built-in support for microservices and WebSockets

Which statement best describes the primary role of NGINX as a web server?

It is a programming language used to build dynamic web applications.

It is a database management system that stores web content.

It is a software that serves web content to clients over HTTP and related protocols.

It is a network firewall that filters incoming web traffic.

A system administrator is tasked with deploying a web server for a small internal tool that serves a few static HTML pages and needs to handle occasional spikes in traffic. The team has no prior NGINX experience. What is the primary reason to choose NGINX for this task?

NGINX is the only web server that supports HTTPS

NGINX automatically compiles PHP code without additional configuration

NGINX includes a built-in database server for dynamic content

NGINX is designed to handle high concurrency with low resource usage, making it suitable for static content and traffic spikes
