Why this program matters

  • Without mastery of Reverse Proxy, companies expose their servers to 80% of common web attacks, resulting in downtime costing an average of 5 600 € per minute according to Gartner.

  • Teams spend 35% more time debugging routing and security problems, with the risk of data leaks multiplied by 4.

  • In 2024, 62% of IT incidents stem from poor proxy management, hindering scalability and threatening competitiveness.

  • Every delay widens the gap with competitors deploying flawless secure and high-performing architectures.

Program

Reverse Proxy curriculum: 3 modules over 3 days

Module 1 : Reverse Proxy Fundamentals: Installation and Basic Configuration with Nginx (tools, tests, first proxy server)

Discovery of essential Reverse Proxy concepts, quick installation of Nginx on a dedicated Linux environment, initial configuration of upstream and downstream servers to securely route HTTP traffic, first tests with curl and diagnostic tools like nginx -t, practical exercises on a concrete business case to proxy a simple web application, creation of basic logs and validation of flows with a personal ongoing project.

Module 2 : Advanced Reverse Proxy: Load Balancing and Security (HAProxy, SSL/TLS, firewall rules)

In-depth exploration of round-robin and leastconn load balancing with Nginx and HAProxy, implementation of SSL/TLS certificates to encrypt incoming communications, security rules against DDoS attacks and SQL injections via headers and rate limiting, practical workshops on real business scenarios involving multiple backends, configuration of automated health checks for high availability, generation of a self-signed certificate and tests with openssl to validate robustness.

Module 3 : Reverse Proxy Optimization: Caching, Monitoring, and Production Deployment (Redis, Prometheus, CI/CD)

Traffic optimization techniques with proxy caching via Nginx and Redis to speed up responses, Gzip compression and asset minification for superior web performance, integration of monitoring with Prometheus and Grafana for real-time metrics, automated deployment via Docker and Ansible scripts on a simulated cluster, exercises on critical business cases like e-commerce, completion of the ongoing project with maintenance plan and complete documentation for immediate production deployment.

Our method

How Learni guarantees the quality of your Reverse Proxy training

Before, during, after: we frame the brief, introduce the trainer, tailor the content and measure impact. You stay in control from kickoff to wrap-up.

Step 1

Rigorous trainer selection

Each trainer is validated on three criteria: hands-on field expertise, proven pedagogy and alignment with your industry.

  • Triple validation: technical, pedagogical, sectoral.
  • Minimum rating 4.8/5 over the last 12 sessions.
Step 2

You meet the trainer beforehand

30-minute video call between you and the selected trainer to validate the fit, adjust content and clear any final doubts.

  • Live briefing on goals and team context.
  • Veto right — we swap the trainer for free if needed.
Step 3

Content tailored to your context

No recycled slides. The syllabus is reworked from your real cases: tools, constraints, vocabulary, ongoing projects.

  • Hands-on cases drawn from your stack and projects.
  • Program co-written then validated by your team.
Step 4

Continuous quality follow-up

Live evaluations, 30/90/180-day check-ins and a consolidation plan. If the impact misses the mark, we rework it.

  • NPS, knowledge quizzes and skills self-assessment.
  • Satisfaction guarantee: fully satisfied or free rework.

A simple promise: you don't pay to discover the trainer on day one. Everything is validated upfront, by you.
