What is the Reverse Proxy (httpd-accelerator) mode?

0

Occasionally people have trouble understanding accelerators and proxy caches, usually resulting from mixed up interpretations of “incoming” and “outgoing” data. I think in terms of requests (i.e., an outgoing request is from the local site out to the big bad Internet). The data received in reply is incoming, of course. Others think in the opposite sense of “a request for incoming data”.
