nghttpx
Reverse proxy for HTTP/3, HTTP/2 and HTTP/1 that ships in the nghttp2 project.
nghttpx is a reverse proxy for HTTP/3, HTTP/2 and HTTP/1 that ships in the nghttp2 project alongside the nghttp2 library. The man page describes its options, and the repository’s README explains how to build the application programs from source or from a release tar archive.
Worth knowing
nghttpx is a long-running server program, so the host has to keep a process running for it. The README advises jemalloc for long-running server programs to limit heap fragmentation.
