It uses Nginx or Apache as a web front end to proxypass the Unicorn web server. By default, communication between Unicorn and the front end is via a Unix domain socket but forwarding requests via TCP is also supported. The web front end accesses `/home/git/gitlab/public` bypassing the Unicorn server to serve static pages, uploads (e.g. avatar images or attachments), and precompiled assets. GitLab serves web pages and a [GitLab API](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/tree/master/doc/api) using the Unicorn web server. It uses Sidekiq as a job queue which, in turn, uses redis as a non-persistent database backend for job information, meta data, and incoming jobs. diff --git a/doc/development/gitlab_architecture_diagram.png b/doc/development/gitlab_architecture_diagram.png Binary files differindex 184a978b11a..9ab7ffd3c7b 100644 --- a/doc/development/gitlab_architecture_diagram.png +++ b/doc/development/gitlab_architecture_diagram.png |
