First off, Massimo and the other leads  recommend it ("apache has too much 
cruft").

And then, regarding Alex's comment, it's easy enough to set up that I 
managed it.

My initial config file was similar to the one in the box, but I first made 
sure that I knew what the pieces of the template were doing.  Just 
yesterday, I added rate limiting on a particular URL, as well as 
determining how to block IPs.

The Nginx site has pretty good documentation:

<URL:http://nginx.org/en/docs/>
<URL:http://nginx.org/en/docs/http/configuring_https_servers.html>
<URL:https://www.nginx.com/resources/admin-guide/logging-and-monitoring/>

and there's some useful 3rd party documentation:
<URL:https://www.packtpub.com/all?search=nginx>
I got *9781785289538-NGINX_ESSENTIALS.pdf* and 
*9781782165125-INSTANT_NGINX_STARTER.pdf* from there.
