Abstracts
Discover how to make your web server configuration more dynamic. In today’s fast-paced development landscape, static configurations often fall short, especially when application engineers need web servers to adapt based on traffic patterns, authentication, request types, and other variables.
Key topics will include:
Using expressions and special directives in configurations
Light scripting with Lua and NJS (JavaScript)
Advanced scripting with WebAssembly
Building custom solutions in C
Nick will guide you through real-world configuration examples, highlighting which approaches work best for specific tasks and which to avoid.
