Explore NGINX Solutions for AWS
Deliver Apps and APIs 90% Faster
Looking for consistent, high-performance app delivery and web services?
NGINX Plus can operate standalone or integrate with AWS services – such as existing load-balancing solutions, Auto Scaling groups, and AWS Lambda – to reduce your application delivery and management costs. Eliminate tool sprawl and complexity with the only all-in-one solution for load balancing, reverse proxy, API gateway, web server, and content cache.
Use NGINX Plus as a:
- Load balancer – Distribute traffic efficiently across backend servers for reliable, high‑performance application delivery
- Reverse proxy – Pass, modify, and manage requests between clients and backend servers
- API gateway – Handle request routing, authentication, rate limiting, and SSL/TLS offload, and deliver API responses in real time (under 30 milliseconds)
- Web server – Deliver content like the majority of the busiest sites on the Internet, with high performance, low resource demands, and a small memory footprint

Increase Productivity with Automation
Trying to eliminate friction and reduce errors in delivering apps?
NGINX solutions can be incorporated seamlessly into DevOps workflows using APIs. Automation reduces manual errors and increases speed and efficiency. NGINX empowers DevOps teams to rapidly deploy load balancers, DNS, and security while allowing NetOps and SecOps teams to retain control over enterprise‑wide networking and security for business‑critical apps.
Unique capabilities include:
- Programmability using APIs – Use APIs to drive configuration and management for NGINX Plus and NGINX Controller
- Ansible Integration – Integrate NGINX seamlessly into your Ansible workflows using the certified NGINX Controller collection and NGINX Plus
Provide Developers with Self-Service
Trying to balance developer agility with a secure infrastructure?
With NGINX Controller, you don’t have to sacrifice control to gain speed. NetOps and SecOps teams can establish guardrails (not gates) by setting up preapproved parameters. Developers can then manage their services and apps running in AWS without impacting other teams, safely giving you the option to share infrastructure resources among teams without outages.
Unique capabilities include:
- App-centricity – Unique application‑centric, rather than infrastructure‑centric, model aligns better with your business processes and workflows
- RBAC – Role-based access control via both the GUI and API enables fine‑grained permissions management across teams
- Infrastructure-agnostic – NGINX Controller can be deployed anywhere and manage your NGINX Plus instances in any cloud
