Reverse proxy has other benefits. You can offload encryption workloads to a
separate server. You can deploy the reverse proxy on a separate network
segment to satisfy PCI requirements. If your IBM i server is down for

You could use Apache on a linux server with mod_proxy. The IBM i is a
backend web server. If you google up Apache Reverse-Proxy etc you'll
find more practical info than I could retype but here's an article
