LEMP Stack (High Performance)

The LEMP stack swaps Apache for Nginx, providing better performance under high concurrency and lower memory usage for static asset serving.

PHP is executed via PHP-FPM (FastCGI Process Manager), which allows for better process management and separation of concerns compared to Apache's mod_php.
