Sōzune

The modern reverse proxy, without the painful config.

Sōzune is a reverse proxy built on Sōzu. It discovers your services across Docker, Podman, Swarm, Kubernetes, Nomad, or a YAML file, manages Let's Encrypt certificates automatically, and applies your changes without restarting.

Why Sōzune

• Multi-platform service discovery — Docker, Podman, Swarm, Kubernetes, Nomad, an HTTP endpoint, or a YAML file.
• Automatic HTTPS — ACME provisioning and renewal, no intervention.
• HTTP/2 by default — negotiated through ALPN on every TLS listener.
• Hot reload — the REST API applies changes on the fly, no downtime.
