Hi,
In case we just want to save xml file(like a binary file) and later read
it, Is there any need for application in server or is it only nginx server
required for such reuirement?
Thank you,
Ran

much better in my opinion (and in the opinion of most users on this list, I
would think), but if you want to serve dynamic content then you should have
an application server behind it.
