Definition

Reverse Proxy is a server component that sits in front of one or more origin servers and forwards client requests to the appropriate backend. It can terminate TLS, cache content, compress responses, and enforce access controls while hiding internal infrastructure. In hosting setups, it is commonly used to improve performance, reliability, and security for websites and APIs.
