NGINX webserver (NGINX, Skolkovo Foundation resident) is often compared to a good engine, powerful and quick. You could also think of comparison with a high-spirited, handsome racehorse that is impatiently bursting forward into the thick of events. Epithets and inspiration are never late in coming when you see its team of our fellow countrymen, talented and full of energy, putting their business on a par with that of the world’s giants. With confidence and high competence.

Here are the results of their work: this month Nginx has become the most popular server, supporting the world’s TOP 1,000 websites, and bringing its current share to almost 40% of websites. Among them are many global top sites as well as some of the best Russian websites. Earlier, just a couple of months ago, the team of Igor Sysoev cleared the bar of 14% of Top-1M world busiest sites.

All that is left to us is to offer our sincerest congratulations to the team. It would, however, be better to “translate this recognition into cash - for it’s time to reap the harvest, to pass on to commercialization. And so, the company is launching a structured “packaged” product, the parent company Nginx Inc. reported yesterday from San Francisco. On Thursday, August 22, Nginx Inc. hosted a global release of NGINX Plus: with an extended functional and service package, including professional support.

Sergei Shubin, Director for IT Project Development at Skolkovo Foundation, noted that the company’s achievements speak volumes to the professional community and wished NGINX a comparable scope of commercialization success, in cooperation with the Foundation, to the one they enjoyed in respect to their victories in science and technology.
