<p>Not that much experienced in php, currently running a php app</p>

<p>The cluster uses an nginx ingress load balancer</p>

<p>The php container currently uses nginx (FROM that one <a href="https://hub.docker.com/r/wyveo/nginx-php-fpm/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://hub.docker.com/r/wyveo/nginx-php-fpm/</a>), so the pod is exposed via nginx</p>

<p>I'm having some weird behaviours by using this image, so I had in mind to give apache a shot, in case it would provide a more stable result</p>

<p>That is, it does not change the game; is there any other ways to run a php app in such context ? What would be the best way ?</p>

<p>Have you checked the official images? </p>

<p>For safety is better to use official images rather than other ones. </p>

<p>Check the php official repo, they have a version with apache installed. </p>

<p>I am not a php expert either, but the configurations I have made usually use apache to handle requests. </p>

<p>The official repo: 
<a href="https://hub.docker.com/_/php" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://hub.docker.com/_/php</a></p>

<p>Check the tags that use apache. There are versions in stretch and alpine. </p>
