Unless you are going to need more than one web container i really don't see the reason to use Apache HTTPD as a reverse proxy, provided that you have installed and are using the APR connector. As for the anwser to the question "how do you achieve proxying of websocket communication" i think there is no standard way yet. Keep in mind users are probably going to run into problems with Websockets if they are behind a firewall, web proxy etc. Unfortuantely websockets are great but are not mature yet.
