Overview
NginX is a web server that can also be used as a reverse proxy, load balancer, mail proxy and HTTP cache.
NginX can be deployed to serve dynamic HTTP content on the network using FastCGI, SCGI handlers for scripts, WSGI application servers or Phusion Passenger modules, and it can serve as a software load balancer. NginX uses an asynchronous event-driven approach, rather than threads, to handle requests. NginX's modular event-driven architecture can provide more predictable performance under high loads.
According to Netcraft's November 2016 Web Server Survey, Nginx was the second-most widely used web server across all "active" sites (18 percent of surveyed sites) and for the top million busiest sites (28 percent of surveyed sites). According to W3Techs, it was used by 38 percent of the top 1 million websites, 50 percent of the top 100,000 websites, and by 57 percent of the top 10,000 websites. Therefore we could say that NginX is a key to success!
NginX - Web Server on Windows Server 2019 provides you with such enterprise-grade features as session persistence, configuration via API, and active health checks so that you can highly improve your application load balancing, monitoring and management.

Amazon Machine Image (AMI)
An AMI is a virtual image that provides the information required to launch an instance. Amazon EC2 (Elastic Compute Cloud) instances are virtual servers on which you can run your applications and workloads, offering varying combinations of CPU, memory, storage, and networking resources. You can launch as many instances from as many different AMIs as you need.
