Nginx Unit + PHP seems to handedly out-perform Nginx + php-fpm[1][2][3]. Also, Docker environments running PHP via Nginx Unit will no longer need separate containers for http + fpm, as it works similar to Apache's mod_php. 1. https://habr.com/en/articles/646397/ 2. https://medium.com/@le_moment_it/nginx-unit-discover-and-ben... 3. https://github.com/nginx/unit/issues/6#issuecomment-38407362...

You don't need separate containers to run nginx and php-fpm.
Well I commend the Nginx team for trying something new and launching this, even though I'm not sure what I would use it for personally. Slightly tangental, but it always irks me when I see these kinds of responses in JSON: { "success": "Reconfiguration done." } Really this should be something like "result": "success". Using "success" as a key name tells me nothing about the data it's representing.
Unit has been around for half a decade. It feels like an evolution to something like Phusion Passenger, but it's not quite cloud-native. A lot of the documentation is tailored to installing directly on a server and some essentials (i.e. prometheus metrics) are missing. I briefly evaluated it for bringing a PHP team into our Kubernetes cluster, but then ended up writing a bit of Go code to proxy into a real nginx+fcgi…
I switched to caddy from nginx and didn’t look back. Auto SSL wildcards was enough.
How is Caddys performance compared to nginx?
The difference is negligible to most people.

wait, did that continue to use php-fpm? if not I want details plz! :D (especially around the logging sync, unless it’s just php-fpm configured to collect child process output)
They ended up really getting into stripping out every piece of PHP they didn't use because the image built PHP from scratch, eventually took over maintenance of the go piece and ported a bunch of their apps to Symphony. I was in a platform engineering team and they were one of the few teams to really torture test every feature we ever shipped to the point they'd report edge cases or a bug to us every other week or so.
As for the logging question, we configured Symphony to log to syslog, which was provided by the Go daemon via unix socket.

By Serde's classification, `success: {}` is a textbook externally tagged representation.
I wasn't familiar with Serde's description of this so that was a good read, thanks. Although I still think this is a bad example of an externally tagged representation. In the Serde example they have the key as "Request" then what follows is the request object. In this example, the "success" key is followed by an arbitrary string message, which isn't obvious at all.
#[derive(Serialize, Deserialize)]
#[serde(rename_all = "camelCase")]
pub enum Response {
Success(serde_json::Value),
Error(serde_json::Value),

This seems a lot more like how IIS works, unless I'm missing something? As an aside: it's always curious to see how the programming world has splintered into cliques that no longer hang out together. NGINX Unit is a "Universal" web server without support for C++, Rust, or ASP.NET! But PERL is supported, like the 1990s Linux cgi-bin world never went away.
In Linux where this is primarily expected to be used ASP.NET is extremely rare, as is C++ for web stuff, and Rust has a vanishingly small web presence still. Lots of people use Perl still though, if not for anything else, for legacy stuff. So might as well ask why it doesn't support Delphi.
This isn’t the dark days of .NET Framework anymore.
