Reverse proxy server as a load balancer
reVerSe CONNeCtIVItY
Reverse proxy servers connect to servers inside your secure network in order to
establish end-to-end communication. sometimes, the back-end server you would
like to use cannot receive connections, which commonly occurs in two situations:
during early development when you want to allow connections to a Websocket server
running on localhost or on a local network, and in some enterprise deployments,
where application servers are behind a firewall that prevents all incoming connections
(usually for security reasons and/or the policy of your organization).
