mod_proxy is an optional module for the Apache HTTP Server.[1]
This module implements a proxy, gateway or cache for Apache. It implements proxying capability for or AJP13 (Apache JServ Protocol version 1.3), FTP, CONNECT (for SSL), HTTP/0.9, HTTP/1.0, and (since Apache 1.3.23) HTTP/1.1. The module can be configured to connect to other proxy modules for these and other protocols.
One powerful feature of Apache is flexible virtual hosting — multiple virtual hosts on a single client. This is a convenient way to partition separate websites and applications. With mod_proxy it is possible to set various web framework based applications up as virtual hosts as well.[2][3][4]
mod_proxy can help to improve LAMP security [5] or to strip SSL from HTTP requests.[6]

History[edit]
This module was experimental in Apache 1.1.x.[7]
As of Apache 1.2, mod_proxy stability was greatly improved.[8]
Since Apache 2.0, proxy features are divided into several modules in addition to mod_proxy: mod_proxy_http, mod_proxy_ftp, and mod_proxy_connect — moreover, caching is provided by mod_cache and related modules.[9]
Since Apache 2.2, mod_proxy_ajp and mod_proxy_balancer have been added as well.[10]
