It is easier to think about them if you realize they aren’t mutually exclusive. Think of an API gateway as a specific type reverse proxy implementation. In regards to your questions, it is not uncommon to see both used in conjunction where the API gateway is treated as an application tier that sits behind a … Read more
Add client_max_body_size Now that you are editing the file you need to add the line into the server block, like so; server { client_max_body_size 8M; //other lines… } If you are hosting multiple sites add it to the http context like so; http { client_max_body_size 8M; //other lines… } And also update the upload_max_filesize in … Read more
This is most likely happening because of the long domain name. You can fix this by adding server_names_hash_bucket_size 64; at the top of your http block (probably located in /etc/nginx/nginx.conf). I quote from the nginx documentation what to do when this error appears: In this case, the directive value should be increased to the next … Read more

The nginx configuration file (usually called nginx.conf) will look like: events { … } http { … server { … } } The server block is enclosed within an http block. Often the configuration is distributed across multiple files, by … Read more

If you can use a static IP then just use that, it’ll startup and just return 503‘s if it doesn’t respond. Use the resolver directive to point to something that can resolve the host, regardless if it’s currently up or not. Resolve it at the location level, if you can’t do the above (this will … Read more
The location block in your nginx config should be: location / { try_files $uri /index.html; } The problem is that requests to the index.html file work, but you’re not currently telling nginx to forward other requests to the index.html file too.
Probably can add a few more line to increase the timeout period to upstream. The examples below sets the timeout to 300 seconds : proxy_connect_timeout 300; proxy_send_timeout 300; proxy_read_timeout 300; send_timeout 300;
HTTP 499 in Nginx means that the client closed the connection before the server answered the request. In my experience is usually caused by client side timeout. As I know it’s an Nginx specific error code.
This happens because your upstream takes too long to answer the request and NGINX thinks the upstream already failed in processing the request, so it responds with an error. Just include and increase proxy_read_timeout in location config block. Same thing happened to me and I used 1 hour timeout for an internal app at work: … Read more
