Sure, but does anyone remember SCGI?

nginx supports four backend protocols out of the box: HTTP, FastCGI, SCGI, and static files.

Of these, if you get to pick one and the request isn't for a static file, SCGI is the obvious best choice.

You can also load extra plugin modules into nginx itself, of course, including one that puts a Lua interpreter inside nginx (mod_php-style).

Remember FastCGI? (2021)
