Question Consumes too much memory, Nginx only not working

[einstein]

Hi,

i actually intend to move my sites to AWS free tier hosting solution which is like 1GB ram.
i intend to host only 1 site on it using the LEMP stack.

i tried to off the apache, but somehow it gets restarted again, and the apache is consuming like 60-70% of memory which causes it to hang after awhile.

how can i fix this?
is plesk onyx still dependent on having apache running in the background for webmails services?

Yes, you are correct.

Yes, you are correct.

is it possible if i turn off the apache, and point all my webmails to another server?

will this make apache permanently turn off?
