13 | 9 | ## Azure Cobalt 100 Arm-based processor |
14 | 10 |
|
15 | | -Azure’s Cobalt 100 is Microsoft’s first-generation, in-house Arm-based processor. Built on Arm Neoverse N2, this 64-bit CPU delivers strong performance and energy efficiency for cloud-native, scale-out Linux workloads such as web and application servers, data analytics, open-source databases, and caching systems. Running at 3.4 GHz, Cobalt 100 allocates a dedicated physical core for each vCPU, which helps ensure consistent and predictable performance. |

20 | 16 |
|
21 | | -NGINX is a high-performance, open-source web server, reverse proxy, load balancer, and HTTP cache. Known for its event-driven, asynchronous architecture, NGINX handles high concurrency with low resource usage. |

|
23 | 19 | There are three main variants of NGINX: |
24 | | -- NGINX Open Source: free and [open-source version available at nginx.org](https://nginx.org) |
25 | | -- NGINX Plus: [Commercial edition of NGINX](https://www.nginx.com/products/nginx/) with features like dynamic reconfig, active health checks, and monitoring |
26 | | -- NGINX Unit: a lightweight, dynamic application server that complements NGINX ([learn more at unit.nginx.org](https://unit.nginx.org/)) |
