By thecertnginx
Hello,
In my project I have a constraint where I have to whitelist some IP for a reverse proxy to a specific url /system However I wanted to have the root path be on the App Platform so I can make use of Zero Downtime Deploys and CD, high availability etc. So on the droplet I made a reverse proxy from nginx to the URL generated from the App platform. Everything is working fine, but still I wanted to ask if this is something I could do? Can this have drawbacks in the future? I realise that I will be billed based on the bandwidth on the app platform and not the droplet and that is ok.
