Ondrej Dockal commented on JBIDE-26452:
---------------------------------------

Varnish - https://www.varnish-cache.org/
* {quote}Varnish Cache is a web application accelerator. You install it in front of any web-server that speaks HTTP and configure it to cache the contents.{quote}
* requires running web server
* two-clause BSD
* https://github.com/varnishcache/varnish-cache
* C
* mostly for web caching and performance
* HTTP accelerator
* Not suitable

HAProxy - https://www.haproxy.org
* TCP+HTTP accelerator,load balancer/proxy server
* GPLv2
* Not really sure about this one, too complex solution

> Explore existing solutions for proxy configuration that could be done at one step without requiring deep user knowledge.
> Existing docker images with squid (other?) proxy. Licensing, usage within RH intranet. Is there an open source code? 
> Requirements for proxy solution: 
> * Supports HTTP and HTTPS protocols
> * Clear and configurable logging and other tools
> * runs on linux
> * Open Source solution
> * License usable "in house" (can be use for profit = in enterprise environment)
> * Project is alive/maintained - or we would must maintain our own fork?
> * Community 
> * Code on github - preferably
> * uses issue tracking system
> Requirements for putting proxy into action:
> * easy to deploy solution
> * does not require user knowledge of proxy configuration - minimalist config
> * can be updated at place 
> * RH certificate can be used
