I am confused about the proxy_pass directive. Suppose, i need to serve an mp4 file from Origin server and using proxy_pass directive in Edge server, whose resources(I/o,bandwidth,Ram) will be used ? Edge or Origin ? Following is the topology to server mp4 file :-
client (request mp4 file) --> edge(ip is 1.2.3.4 so don't serve it locally and forward it to origin) --> origin (serves the requested mp4 file). Now, when origin serves that mp4 file, will the mp4 file first goes edge server and than client is served via edge proxy ? Also mp4 is a big file and i am curious to know whose HDD i/o will be used to serve this file , Edge/Origin ? Thanks Shahzaib
