+### **Reverse proxy built on top of Cloudflare's Pingora**
 
-## 🌍 Highlights
+Aralez is a high-performance Rust reverse proxy with zero-configuration automatic protocol handling, TLS, and upstream management, featuring Consul and Kubernetes integration for dynamic pod discovery and health-checked routing, acting as a
+lightweight ingress-style proxy.
 
-- ⚙️ **Upstream Providers:** Supports `file`-based static upstreams, dynamic service discovery via `Consul`.
-- 🔁 **Hot Reloading:** Modify upstreams on the fly via `upstreams.yaml` — no restart needed.
-- 🔮 **Automatic WebSocket Support:** Zero config — connection upgrades are handled seamlessly.
-- 🔮 **Automatic GRPC Support:** Zero config, Requires `ssl` to proxy, gRPC is handled seamlessly.
-- 🔮 **Upstreams Session Stickiness:** Enable/Disable Sticky sessions.
-- 🔐 **TLS Termination:** Fully supports TLS for incoming and upstream traffic.
-- 🛡️ **Built-in Authentication** Basic Auth, JWT, API key.
-- 🧠 **Header Injection:** Global and per-route header configuration.
-- 🧪 **Health Checks:** Pluggable health check methods for upstreams.
-- 🛰️ **Remote Config Push:** Lightweight HTTP API to update configs from CI/CD or other systems.

-- `proxy_address_tls`: `0.0.0.0:6194` (TLS listener, optional)
-- `config_address`: `0.0.0.0:3000` (HTTP API for remote config push)
-- `upstreams_conf`: `etc/upstreams.yaml` (location of upstreams config)
-- `log_level`: `info` (verbosity of logs)
-- `hc_method`: `HEAD`, `hc_interval`: `2s` (upstream health checks)
-- `user` Optional. Drop privileges to regular user. To bind to privileged ports. Requires to start as root.
-- `group` Optional. Drop privileges to regular group
-- Other defaults: thread count, keep-alive pool size, etc.
-
-### 🌐 `upstreams.yaml`
-
-- `provider`: `file` or `consul`
-- File-based upstreams define:
-    - Hostnames and routing paths
-    - Backend servers (load-balanced)
-    - Optional request headers, specific to this upstream
-- Global headers (e.g., CORS) apply to all proxied responses
-- Optional authentication (Basic, API Key, JWT)
+- **Dynamic Config Reloads** — Upstreams can be updated live via API, no restart required.
+- **Autoload of certificates** — Automatically loads new/changed certificates from a folder, without a restart.
+- **Let’s Encrypt Certificates** — Ordering and renewal of SSL/TLS certificates via the HTTP-01 challenge.
+- **Upstreams TLS detection** — Aralez will automatically detect if upstreams uses secure connection.
+- **Built in rate limiter** — Globar or route limit requests to upstreams.
+- **Caching Proxy** — In memory cache with configurable TTL, without external dependencies.
+- **Authentication** — Supports Basic Auth, API tokens, and JWT verification.
+    - **Basic Auth**
+    - **API Key** via `x-api-key` header
+    - **JWT Auth**, with tokens issued by Aralez itself via `/jwt` API
+    - **Forward Auth**, Sends requests to an authentication server.
+- **Load Balancing** Round-robin, health checks, optional sticky sessions.
+- **Built in file server** — Build in minimalistic file server for serving static files, should be added as upstreams for public access.
+- **Upstream Providers:**
+    - `file` Upstreams are declared in config file.
+    - `consul` Upstreams are dynamically updated from Hashicorp Consul.
+    - `kubernetes` Upstreams are dynamically updated from kubernetes api server.
+- **Auto WebSocket Support:** WS connection upgrades are handled automatically.
+- **Auto gRPC Support:** gRPC detected and handled automatically.
+- **Header Injection:** Global and per-route server/client headers injection.
+- **Remote Config Push:** Lightweight HTTP API to update configs from CI/CD or other systems.

-## 🔌 Running the Proxy
+## About binaries
 
-```bash
-./gazan -c path/to/main.yaml
+**glibc** builds are in general faster, but have few, basic, Glibc dependencies:
+
+**musl** builds are 100% portable, static compiled binaries and have zero system dependencies. In general musl builds have a little less performance.
+
+The most intensive tests shows 107k-110k requests per second on **Glibc** binaries against 97k-100k **Musl** ones.
+
+For running **Aralez** on very old hardware, CPUs prior Haswell, (launched before 2013) use `aralez-x86_64-compat-*.gz`
+For getting the best performance on newer hardware use `aralez-x86_64-*.gz`.

-## 🔐 TLS Support
+## TLS Support
 
-To enable TLS for A proxy server: Currently only OpenSSL is supported, working on Boringssl and Rustls
+To enable TLS for the proxy server.
 
-1. Set `proxy_address_tls` in `main.yaml`
-2. Provide `tls_certificate` and `tls_key_file`
+- Set `proxy_address_tls` in `main.yaml`
+- Provide at least one  `tls_certificate/tls_key_file` pair.
+    - First pair is required to create the TLS listener.
+    - This pair can be anything, even self-signed with dummy domain.
+    - After getting normal certificate it can be deleted
+
+```shell
+mkdir -p /etc/aralez/certificates
+chown -R aralez:aralez /etc/aralez
+cd /etc/aralez/certificates
+openssl req -x509 -newkey rsa:4096 \

+This benchmark is done on 4 servers. With CPU Intel (R) Xeon (R) E-2174G CPU @ 3.80GHz, 64 GB RAM.
+
+1. Sever runs Aralez, Traefik, Nginx on different ports. Tuned as much as I could .
+2. 3x Upstreams servers, running Nginx. Replying with dummy json hardcoded in config file for max performance.
+
+All servers are connected to the same switch with 1GB port in datacenter , not a home lab. The results:
+![Aralez](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sadoyan/aralez/refs/heads/main/assets/bench.png)

+The results show requests per second performed by Load balancer. You can see 3 batches with 800 concurrent users.
+
+1. Requests via http1.1 to plain text endpoint.
+2. Requests to via http2 to SSL endpoint.
+3. Mixed workload with plain http1.1 and htt2 SSL.
