Pingoo

The fast and secure Load Balancer / API Gateway / Reverse Proxy with built-in service discovery, GeoIP, WAF, bot protection and much more

Documentation | Read the launch post

Open Source load balancers and reverse proxies are stuck in the past century with a very slow pace of development and most of the important features reserved for "Enterprise Editions" which lead developers to use third-party cloud services, exposing their users' traffic to legal, security and reliability risks.

Pingoo is a modern Load Balancer / API Gateway / Reverse Proxy that run on your own servers and already have (or will have soon) all the features you expect from managed services and even more. All of that with a huge boost in performance and security thanks to reduced latency and, of course, Rust ;)

Automatic and Post-Quantum HTTPS / TLS
Service Discovery (Docker, DNS...)
Web Application Firewall (WAF)
Easy compliance because the data never leaves your servers
Bot protection and management
TCP proxying
GeoIP (country, ASN)
Static sites
And much more

Quickstart

# You have a static site in the www folder
$ ls www
index.html
$ docker run --rm -ti -p 80:80 -v `pwd`/www:/var/wwww pingooio/pingoo
# Pingoo is now listenning on http://0.0.0.0
