How does Envoy compare to Caddy 2 ?
https://caddyserver.com
I use Caddy a lot and it's perfectly fine for my scale, but at dropbox's scale, maybe go wouldn't be enough for the ingress part?
I am more curious what makes the author think Caddy "might not be the best choice for a general purpose ingress/egress proxy" (there were no other qualifications to that statement, but no evidence to support it either).
Part of reducing dependencies in my own software was a conscious decision to minimize future CVE exposure.
Might as well use C then (with some hand-written asm sprinkled in where the compiler gets confused and doesn't see an obvious optimization) for that. And I'm not even being sarcastic here (I wish I was though)
