inlets VS BunkerWeb

Thanks for the guide. Just to mention another option is https://github.com/inlets/inlets-operator

adding on to this, if OP goes down the local k8s cluster route for learning purposes, they can then hook it up to a public load balancer with this TCP tunnel thingy called inlets for a few bucks a month https://github.com/inlets/inlets-operator

Thanks! To be honest, I was thinking of a tutorial too. But then I stumbled upon the inlets-operator (the one from the visualization in the article) and its code actually looks very good in my opinion. It's concise, straightforward, and seems to be idiomatic. I do recommend taking a look at it.

Keep in mind that integrating a WAF can render certain apps not working if the security configuration is set too paranoid. There are a lot of examples for apps that might be affected, though.

Its documentation is nice as well. You can also find them on Discord and the GitHub repo is also pretty clean and have many example configurations there.

This also effectively allows your killswitch to be Nginx on the VPS while still allowing local network traffic at home. You can take it a step further and geoblock countries and more with https://github.com/bunkerity/bunkerweb.

I know you asked about Nginx vs Caddy but to throw another one into the mix have a look at BunkerWeb. I only started using it within the last couple of months but it's based on Nginx with a tonne of usability and security improvements. I now use BunkerWeb to expose services externally and Traefik internally.

Creating a new discussion here doesn't seem to be an option (doesn't allow me to do so) so I came here.

There's also a security optimized NGINX image called BunkerWeb. It has a WAF builtin and an optional web interface.

Right now I'm doing a similar setup but I want to use NGINX with integrated WAF.

Bunkerised nginx comes me in mind here https://github.com/bunkerity/bunkerized-nginx
