Endec

In electronic communications, an endec is a device which acts as both an encoder and a decoder on a signal or data stream. The combining of these names is a portmanteau.

Examples

gollark: There's a DNS SRV record thing which might be relevant but I have no idea if/how it works.
gollark: It would be sent somewhere else, and there's caching.
gollark: There isn't really, because if you're just dealing with random TCP streams I don't think they have a similar thing to the HTTP Host header, which tells you what domain ~~you~~ the client wants to access.
gollark: caddy is a newer and trendier one which does nice stuff like HTTPS without having to use an external program like certbot, but in my opinion v2 made configuring it quite annoying.
gollark: I'd recommend nginx for reverse-proxying, it has reasonably non-annoying configuration and is very fast.
