    Reverse Proxy Server using NGINX on Ubuntu

     Info
    Deployed on AWS
    AWS Free Tier
    Nginx can be used web serving, reverse proxying, caching, load balancing, media streaming, & more. In addition to its HTTP server capabilities, NGINX can also function as a proxy server for email (IMAP, POP3, and SMTP) and a reverse proxy & load balancer

    Overview

    Reverse Proxy Server Solution using NGINX

    Nginx is an open source software solution that is highly scalable.

    Nginx Reverse Proxy Features: Reverse proxy with caching Load balancing with in-band health checks TLS/SSL with SNI and OCSP stapling support, via OpenSSL FastCGI, SCGI, uWSGI, support with caching SMTP, POP3, and IMAP proxy Keep-alive and pipelined connections support Access control based Response rate limiting WebSockets

    Load balancing: A reverse proxy server sits in front of your backend servers and distributes client requests across a group of servers in a manner that maximizes speed and capacity utilization while ensuring no one server is overloaded, which can degrade performance. If a server goes down, the load balancer redirects traffic to the remaining online servers.

    Web acceleration: Reverse proxies can compress inbound and outbound data, as well as cache commonly requested content, both of which speed up the flow of traffic between clients and servers. They can also perform additional tasks such as SSL encryption to take load off of your web servers, thereby boosting their performance.

    Security and anonymity: By intercepting requests headed for your backend servers, a reverse proxy server protects their identities and acts as an additional defense against security attacks. It also ensures that multiple servers can be accessed from a single record locator or URL regardless of the structure of your local area network.
