Nginx Reverse Proxy

The reverse proxy mode is actually a proxy server responsible for forwarding, seemingly acting as a real server function, but in fact not, the proxy server just acts as a forwarding role, and from the real server to obtain the returned data. In fact, this is the kind of work that Nginx has done. We let Nginx listen to a port, such as 80 port, but we actually forwarded to Tomcat on port 8080, which handles the real request, and when the request is complete, Tomcat returns, but the data is not returned directly, but directly to Nginx, returned by Nginx, here, We'll assume that it's nginx, but actually we're dealing with Tomcat.
