Hello!
I need advice from more experienced colleagues. I have an online store on WordPress + WooCommerce, which is quite large — over 20,000 products, active filters, search, and many requests during peak hours.
Currently, the site runs on VPS (I use hosting from hostpro.com, LiteSpeed is installed), but I feel that the project has outgrown this infrastructure — speed drops during peak loads, and caching is already squeezed to the maximum.
I plan to switch to a dedicated server, and here's my question:
Which web server is better to choose for such tasks — LiteSpeed, Nginx, or Apache (with modifications)?
Real cases, pros/cons, configurations — I would be very grateful for your experience. I am also interested in how you balance performance and security when it comes to a large store.
