Summary: Unix Domain Socket Listener to Undertow
Key: WFLY-5257
URL:
https://issues.jboss.org/browse/WFLY-5257
Project: WildFly
Issue Type: Feature Request
Components: IO
Environment: Unix/Linux
Reporter: Marcio Ricardo Hatzlhoffer Correia
Assignee: Jason Greene
For many cases, it's used an application like Apache or Nginx as a Reverse Proxy in
front of Wildfly. As there is no option to use Unix Domain Socket, these applications use
the TCP stack to redirect the connection to the Wildfly (Undertow) and it incurs a slight
performance overhead.
In the case of a Reverse Proxy configuration where your upstream server is on the same
machine, you can get better performance by skipping the TCP/Network stack and using Unix
Domain Sockets. A Unix Domain Socket is communication mechanism to do inter-process
messaging within the operating system kernel, using the file system as the name space.
