Reverse proxy technology plays a critical role in modern web architecture by enhancing security, improving performance, and facilitating efficient content delivery. This paper provides a comprehensive review of reverse proxy technology, covering its fundamental concepts, architectural components, deployment scenarios, and practical applications. We delve into the mechanisms behind reverse proxy servers, discussing how they intercept client requests and forward them to backend servers, as well as how they handle responses. Additionally, we explore the various benefits of using reverse proxies, such as load balancing, SSL termination, caching, and protection against common web attacks. Furthermore, we analyze real-world use cases of reverse proxy technology across different industries, including e-commerce, media streaming, and enterprise applications. Lastly, we go over new developments and trends in reverse proxy technology, like the use of serverless architectures for deployments that are both scalable and economical and the incorporation of machine learning for intelligent request routing. Our goal in offering this thorough review is to improve knowledge of reverse proxy technology and stimulate additional study and advancement in this area.
