    Nice benchmarks. Bet most people hating on Caddy in the comments are the same reverse proxying a low trafic nodejs or python app with nginx BeCaUsE iT's FaStER. You don't pick caddy because it's the fastest reverse proxy around, you pick it because it's fast and reliable enough, because the reverse proxy is rarely a bottleneck and you get automatic certificates, ARI and OCSP staples, automatic HTTP3, Caddyfiles, nice docs, nice logs, nice containers, nice CLI, nice defaults, caddy modules. Sure one should consider alternatives carefully on exceptionally demanding apps.

    • @Atmos41
      @Atmos41 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +6

      Also reverse proxy is such an easy thing to migrate. If performance is the concern, this is probably not the bottleneck, and if it is it's a very small rewrite.
      Also getting started with Caddy is a no-brainer.

    💡 That is really interesting. I could swear it's the other way around, of course I believe your benchmark. My server was attacked via DoS and I swapped my NGINX reverse proxies on the host and in Docker for Caddy and my server was able to handle requests again and stabilised.

Both can be used on the same server as the backend, doing the exact same job (which happens very often, the same with MySql. I wouldn't compare them in the use case where the DB is running on its own server).

      ​​@@lemonardotBoth SQLite and PostgreSQL are relational databases, so comparing them isn't totally off, especially for things like ERP or bookkeeping applications. Sure, SQLite is file-based and runs on the same machine, which can be a plus or minus depending on the setup, but both handle core database tasks like writes, updates, and selects.
      They definitely differ on things like permissions, client-server setup, advanced features Postgres provides, and latency, so you could argue pros and cons there. But for many use cases, SQLite’s simplicity is actually an advantage, and plenty of apps could use it without giving up anything essential.
      it’s surprising how many companies still pay for MS SQL or Oracle when SQLite would work fine and make things way simpler to deploy and maintain. Yeah, it doesn’t support things like stored procedures, but how critical are those really? When indeed required, one could often use Python or Bash scripts to achive the same goal.

    Nginx is passing 25K requests to the apps behind it (12.5K each), Caddy is passing 4K requests to the apps behind it (2K each). That explains why the apps behind Nginx are higher on CPU usage. They are simply processing more requests (about 6 times more).

      3. Use CA directly in the client to verify proxies cets since they were issued by self sign CA
      In the github in the client you can actually see the CA itself with private key, which actually you don't need in the client it just to create tls 'kind' secret in k8s you required to provide a key as well.
      I don't use mTLS in this case.

    Throughout all these tests you always serve just in time compressed artifacts. For my personal project, which contains a relatively large wasm binary (depending on configuration 3-6MB uncompressed) I serve assets precompressed.
    Testing for this usecase would also eliminate the potential for differences in default compression settings for web servers.

    @AntonPutra since in the reverse proxy test Nginx has mich higher throughput the application VMs behind it are processing much more number of requests than the application VMs behind Caddy.
    I guess this might be the explanation behind the unusually high CPU usage.

    • @AntonPutra

    Hi, thanks for the video. the data result is somehow a shock for me.
    Even i think you should update nginx vs apahce with new change and new version of ngnix.
    Although you show Apache as reverse proxy is better than ngnix. 🤣
    Next video i would say Apache vs Caddy. since the king is still ngnix, just to close with 3 well known servers tests.
    About which server is best for beginners, for it is not caddy. It is and always be, Apache, because with no config by default is setup to serve static files and even more easy when using PHP, since you dont need to setup as reverse proxy like ngnix or caddy with fpm.

    • @AntonPutra
      @AntonPutra  2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      thanks for your feedback. with each new benchmark, i accumulate more insights and improvements from experts in the field, so i'll definitely refresh the benchmarks when i get enough improvement. i say caddy is easier for beginners mostly due to its built-in ssl/tls resolvers; with nginx and apache, you need an extra step.

    • @jediampm
      @jediampm 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @@AntonPutra HI, about tls / ssl on apache , last time i config and remember on VPS, only need to indicate the path of crt and private key file and activate ssl mode.
      And you also said for small projects you also recommended caddy, which i dont agree, for several reasons, on majority of sharehost, they give you apache not caddy, where you dont need to worry about config files or even ssl.
      Apache on VPS, less config files and defaults are enough even with htacess file, for small changes, without mess up main config file. Apache on Docker container is even more simple, just indicate document root and with PHP no need extra container.
      To switch for caddy only if i am using ngnix and it is faster than ngnix, which you show ngnix > caddy. For small projects and low traffic apache is enough, no need to complicate things with caddy or ngnix. keep it simple. ☺
