Server configuration and reverse proxies

Reverse-proxy configuration across 50+ sites and 10+ server environments, then handed over.

50+

sites configured

10+

CMS and server environment types

In short

A body of infrastructure work rather than a single product: advanced reverse-proxy configuration across more than 50 sites and more than 10 different CMS and server environment types, followed by teaching the Japan-based team to do the configuration themselves.

Who it is for

Internal teams and the sites they operate.

The problem

Sites were spread across many different CMS platforms and server environments, each needing its own reverse-proxy treatment. Concentrating that knowledge in one engineer is a bottleneck, wherever that engineer sits.

What I delivered

  • Configured advanced reverse proxies across more than 50 sites.
  • Worked across more than 10 CMS and server environment types, on Nginx and Apache with PHP, WordPress and several Japanese CMS platforms.
  • Supported the Japan-based team through the work and taught them to perform the configuration themselves.

Outcome

Sites were configured across diverse environments, and the team was able to continue the work without me.

  • 50+ sites configured
  • 10+ CMS and server environment types
  • Team trained to run the configuration independently
