Hi, is there a way of hosting our backend software alongside Appwrite on a single server? We're looking to maybe put something like nginx as a reverse proxy in front, so it routes requests accordingly (so appwrite.example.com requests go to Appwrite while backend.example.com requests go to backend). Is this a supported setup?

TL;DR
You can host your backend software alongside Appwrite on the same server by using a reverse proxy like nginx. This setup will allow requests to be routed accordingly to either Appwrite or the backend software. This is a supported setup and you can refer to this link for more detailed instructions: <https://medium.com/@stnguyen90/how-to-run-appwrite-behind-nginx-19348ed34243>

Yes, a reverse proxy is typically used for that and yes, you can put Appwrite behind a reverse proxy

This might be helpful if you're going to use nginx proxy manager: https://medium.com/@stnguyen90/how-to-run-appwrite-behind-nginx-19348ed34243
