My final year project (dissertation) analysed the performance of two popular web servers, Apache and NGiNX, when running with different configurations and optimizations on a Linux server in both dedicated and virtual environments.

It concluded with recommendations on which server performed the best under different scenarios. My dissertation was published on the Universities Computing blog (link).
