Building an HTTP request router with NGINX and Lua - Shopify
With over 160,000 merchants, Shopify is one of the biggest commerce providers in the world. A critical piece of our technology stack is NGINX. Using a custom request router, built with NGINX and Lua, we’re able to dynamically control how requests are routed through the Shopify platform. This allows us to regularly perform zero-downtime failovers between data centres, as well as allow for fine-grained resource isolation. This talk will delve into the details of how we built and tested our router, and how Shopify is using NGINX and Lua to enable high performance, with minimum latency and maximum resiliency.
