Hello all I am new to nginx and wanted to confirm if my understanding is<br>
correct. To retart nginx like any other service would cause downtime. If I<br>
change nginx configurations I can do a reload to cause the new<br>
configurations to take effect without any downtime to my site is that<br>
correct?<br>
