Cloudflare Ditches Nginx For In-House, Rust-Written Pingora
From https://www.phoronix.com/news/CloudF...ngora-No-Nginx
Quote:
Cloudflare has long relied upon Nginx as part of its HTTP proxy stack but now has replaced it with their in-house, Rust-written Pingora software that is said to be serving over one trillion requests per day and delivering better performance while only using about a third of the CPU and memory resources.
[snip]
Those wishing to learn more about Cloudflare's Pingora project can do so via the Cloudflare blog. The only downside is that Pingora isn't yet open-sourced -- Cloudflare says they are working out the plans to, but as of right now this HTTP proxy isn't yet public.

The blog clarifies that switching to Rust is not the reason for the performance gain.
