Nginx is a very good HTTP server and reverse proxy. It is simple to configure, easy to start, and it "does the job". We often use it as a proxy to backends. But, sometimes, you can feel some limitations. For example if you need to authorize users to several backends with a specific identity provider with a weird API. Or, sometimes, this is the backend which is problematic.
