As network architecture becomes increasingly complex, developers and operation and maintenance teams need simpler tools to manage traffic, ensure security, and improve service reliability. Naproxy is an open source network proxy solution that aims to solve the following core problems through a clear architectural design:

What can it do?
Intelligent traffic routing: dynamically allocate requests to backend services, support load balancing and failover

Unified security layer: provide TLS termination, access control and basic DDoS protection capabilities

Protocol compatibility: native support for HTTP/1.x, HTTP/2, WebSocket and gRPC communication

Operation and maintenance friendliness: manage configuration through API/UI, support zero downtime hot update

Design principles
Lightweight and transparent: low resource usage, real-time observable operation status indicators

Cloud native adaptation: containerized deployment, seamless integration of Kubernetes ecosystem

Progressive configuration: from basic reverse proxy to fine traffic strategy, enable complex functions on demand

"Our original intention in building Naproxy is to provide a predictable and easy-to-maintain network abstraction layer for distributed systems."
