Nginx API Gateway is blocking or non-blocking?

When we use Nginx(or Nginx Pluz) as an API Gateway for high throughput and concurrent requests, are the http calls made in a blocking or non-blocking manner?

Nginx uses non-blocking architecture - nginx architecture.

Most of the industry standard reverse-proxy servers are non-blocking, including Apache HTTPD server.
