MySQL Database Export, Backup and Import, Restore Methods

Reverse Proxy vs Load Balancer
Ref: https://www.nginx.com/resources/glossary/reverse-proxy-vs-load-balancer/
Reverse proxy servers and load balancers are components in a client-server computing architecture. Both act as intermediaries in the communication between the clients and servers, performing functions that improve efficiency. They can be implemented as dedicated, purpose-built devices, but increasingly in modern web architectures they are software applications that run on commodity hardware.
The basic definitions are simple:
- A reverse proxy accepts a request from a client, forwards it to a server that can fulfill it, and returns the server’s response to the client.
- A load balancer distributes incoming client requests among a group of servers, in each case returning the response from the selected server to the appropriate client.
But they sound pretty similar, right? Both types of application sit between clients and servers, accepting requests from the former and delivering responses from the latter. No wonder there’s confusion about what’s a reverse proxy vs. load balancer. To help tease them apart, let’s explore when and why they’re typically deployed at a website.
