## `%%IMAGE%%:<version>-fpm`

This variant contains PHP-FPM, which is a FastCGI implementation for PHP. See [the PHP-FPM website](https://php-fpm.org/) for more information about PHP-FPM.

In order to use this image variant, some kind of reverse proxy (such as NGINX, Apache, or other tool which speaks the FastCGI protocol) will be required.

**WARNING:** the FastCGI protocol is inherently trusting, and thus *extremely* insecure to expose outside of a private container network -- unless you know *exactly* what you are doing (and are willing to accept the extreme risk), do not use Docker's `--publish` (`-p`) flag with this image variant.
