We at NGINX request the pleasure of your company at NGINX Conf 2018, the fourth annual NGINX conference. The dates are Monday, October 8 through Thursday, October 11, all in Atlanta, Georgia, USA.
Why Atlanta, and why October?
In previous years, we called this event nginx.conf – a direct reference to the configuration files that make your NGINX instances hum – and held it the same week as Labor Day. You can see many of the sessions from previous years on the NGINX YouTube channel.
This year, we moved the date back a month, and changed the name a bit. Why the name change? Well, NGINX – the company – now offers much more than NGINX Open Source and NGINX Plus, our commercial web and reverse proxy server.
At NGINX Conf 2018, you’ll get to see our expanded lineup of products, as well as new and upcoming features across our major software offerings:
NGINX Controller, which makes it easier to monitor and manage NGINX installations, was demoed at nginx.conf 2017. For NGINX Conf 2018, we’ll have several months of hands‑on customer experience for the shipping version, which is coming soon.
[Editor – NGINX Controller is now F5 NGINX Management Suite.]
You can also expect updates on, and demos of, the NGINX ModSecurity WAF Module, NGINX Ingress Controller, the NGINX Istio Service Mesh, the NGINX JavaScript Module, NGINX Amplify – and the NGINX Application Platform, which ties them all together.
[Editor – The NGINX ModSecurity WAF module for NGINX Plus officially went End-of-Sale as of April 1, 2022 and is transitioning to End-of-Life effective March 31, 2024. For more details, see F5 NGINX ModSecurity WAF Is Transitioning to End-of-Life<.htmla> on our blog.]
At NGINX Conference, you get so many things you can’t get by staying home:
And, as a crucial benefit, everyone who comes – NGINX leadership and employees, partners, exhibitors, presenters, and conference and training attendees – gets to network with each other. Some of the best things that happen every year at our conference, and after, are the result of these informal meetings.
So, please save the dates: Monday, October 8 through Thursday, October 11 in Atlanta, Georgia, USA. Keep checking the conference home page for details. And sign up here for updates through the NGINX Newsletter.
