I’ll assume that you have successfully installed Erlang and Mochiweb and deployed your first small tiny app.
When it comes to deliver static content at lightning speed and do reverse proxy job, there is one name : Nginx, the Igor Sysoev high-performance HTTP server.
It plays well with ssl and in the last dev version you can even find an interesting module for uploading files, nothing less … we will probably tell you more about that in the series.
Nginx is really turning itself into a real handy swiss knife.
