It's $1350/server per year to pay for the feature. You mention in your post: "Our noble HTTP server". Wait. Not plural? I know that a that is a fair bit of money for a bootstrapped startup, but if you are anticipating enough traffic that the syslog feature is an issue, AND you have at least three floors of offices (as mentioned in your blog post), then maybe your OPEX prioritization is a bit off, and you should just pony up.
Nginx is a great piece of software for $no dollars, maybe it would be good karma to pay for the extras you need?
- ars_technician 13y agoYes, $1350/server per year * 100 VMs which just broker requests from clients to php-fpm. Totally reasonable. /s For that price, they could pay someone who's sole job is to maintain a private fork with the feature. It's not like they can submit it back since nginx would reject an enterprise competing patch, but at least they would have the functionality and the benefit of another dev on hand.
- rhino444 13y agoSo is that about the pricing or the closed source? Would it be different if the pricing was something else? Just curious. Also, like quite a few people pointed out, why not request "the best pricing" given certain deployment scenario?
