Nginx ngx_stream_core_module & ngx_stream_ssl_module examples

Nginx 1.9 adds TCP load balancing support if you compile Nginx with the following configure options below:

Code:

--with-stream --with-stream_ssl_module

Official documentation below still is vague as to what you can do:

• Module ngx_stream_core_module
• Module ngx_stream_ssl_module

However, this thread's purpose is for me and you (if you want to contribute) is to compile a list of links or web sites with info explaining how to use Nginx stream support.

Example links for Nginx stream usage:

• Official Resource: TCP Load Balancing - NGINX
  
• Official Resource: MySQL High Availability with NGINX Plus and Galera Cluster
• For load balancing memcached servers NginxのTCP Load BalancingがOSS版でも使えるらしいので試す - あすのかぜ (in Japanese)
  Code:

  stream {
       upstream backend {
           server 192.168.0.2:11211 weight=5 max_fails=3 fail_timeout=30s;
           server 192.168.0.3:11211 weight=5 max_fails=3 fail_timeout=30s;
       }
  
       server {
           listen 11211;
           proxy_connect_timeout 1s;
           proxy_timeout 3s;
           proxy_pass backend;
       }
  }

TCP load balancing means load balancing anything that listens to TCP port like memcached, mysql etc
