PHP-FPM
FastCGI process manager for PHP, built as an optional SAPI in the PHP source tree.
PHP-FPM is a FastCGI process manager for PHP, built as an optional SAPI in the PHP source tree. The manual calls it a primary PHP FastCGI implementation. It runs in the background by default and is enabled with the --enable-fpm configure option when PHP is built from source. Its releases are PHP releases, so the PHP branch support dates apply to it.
Worth knowing
The manual says php-fpm must not be reachable from an untrusted network.
