Can you use NGINX as a reverse proxy?
I have a question.
Are the NGINX reverse proxy servers functional enough for us to deploy it into our application? For example, can I point my domain (for example) www.com/app to www.nginx-app.com and have it return content from my application?
As I understand it, NGINX is a simple web server that has built in modules that can act as proxy and load balancer to support any web server that you install. We don't necessarily need a full web server just anything to handle static files like js and css.
Yes, you should be able to use your application as front end, but the way I would accomplish it would be with a load balancer. Then you configure a web site on your load balancer for reverse proxying to your application servers.
