ngx_brotli is a set of two Nginx modules developed by Google that enable Brotli compression for web content delivery. Brotli is a modern, general-purpose, lossless compression algorithm combining an optimized variant of LZ77, Huffman coding, and second-order context modeling. It provides compression ratios comparable to the best general-purpose compressors while maintaining speeds similar to Deflate (gzip). These modules help websites and APIs deliver smaller payloads, resulting in faster page loads, reduced bandwidth usage, and better Core Web Vitals.

Features

  • On-the-fly Brotli compression for HTTP responses
  • Serving pre-compressed .br static files
  • Adjustable compression levels (0–11)
  • Configurable MIME type handling for compression
  • Optional minimum content length before compression
  • Supports static and dynamic Nginx module builds
