The application is made up of several micro services. Several of these publish a REST API and run on different ports.

Reverse Proxy

To have an application which is accessible from the majority of the internet, we wish to use only the standard HTTP and HTTPS ports. In order to solve this issues, we use Nginx as a reverse proxy. We have several subdomains pointing to the same IP address, and we proxy the requests using Nginx to different ports based on the subdomains.

You can read more about the concepts here:
