Implement moodle vs nginx or apache

Hi all,

I am considering to improve the performance on my own Moodle server with 10K users, and approximate 500 concurrent users.

I already installed LAMPP (Apache, Php, Mysql) on my server. The Moodle is running OK now. However its performance seems not to be good as expected.

So should I change to web server from apache to nginx? How is different between apache vs nginx, about performance, security, configuration, etc?

Thanks,

Toan

There are many different bottlenecks you might be hitting on (CPU, RAM, I/O). First try to identify them. The first step might be installing basic monitoring system like munin. Gather a week of data and post link to them. 

 

It would give you also a baseline measurement to compare if your changes are making things any better.
