Enable nginx gzip on upstream address
When enabling gzip on upstream make sure to identify the gzip_types and gzip_proxied:
location @unicorn {
gzip on;
gzip_proxied any;
gzip_types text/css text/plain text/xml application/xml application/javascript application/x-javascript text/javascript application/json text/x-json;
}
Add “text/x-json” if you want api json responses(grape/sinatra/rails-api) to be gzipped.
