PHP-FPM

What is PHP-FPM?

PHP-FPM (PHP FastCGI Process Manager) is a FastCGI process manager that helps web servers like Nginx handle incoming HTTP requests faster by efficently managing and spawning worker processes to execute PHP code.

It is efficient because it uses existing resources from existing processes rather than spawning up new processes for each incoming HTTP request.
