  Description     : a fast, reliable, hot reconfigurable HTTP reverse proxy


Its authors intend it to be “the most reliable reverse proxy ever”:

- - it should never crash (currently fixing the remaining panics)
- - you should not need to restart it
  - it can receive configuration changes from a unix socket at runtime
  - it should be able to upgrade without any downtime
- - it should not have exploitable memory errors
  - even if it has one, workers will be sandboxed
- - you set up a limit on the number of concurrent connections to a worker
  - the reverse proxy will refuse new connections over that limit,
    instead of requesting unavailable resources like memory


Moreover, HTTP frontends currently-available in Debian are either fairly
low-performance, or written in languages that do not guarantee memory safety,
making them a never-ending source of remotely-exploitable bugs.

As such, I believe sozū fills a gap within Debian's package ecosystem.


I intent to package it, and its various components, as part of the Debian Rust
team, and maybe get involved in upstream development (author in X-Debbugs-CC).


Best,
