Abstract
In certain example embodiments of this invention, there is provided systems and/or methods for a streaming reverse HTTP gateway, and/or networks including the same. In such a network, a reverse HTTP gateway is located within a demilitarized zone (DMZ) disposed between public (or external) and private (or internal) networks for providing security therebetween. Requests from external clients may be streamed from the external network to the internal network over various connections and ports, including a substantially persistent reverse connection between an internal server and a reverse HTTP gateway. The reverse HTTP gateway architecture of certain example embodiments removes the need for proprietary protocols implemented between the reverse HTTP gateway located in the DMZ and the internal server located in the internal network. In certain example embodiments, the reverse HTTP gateway architecture is configured to leverage the capabilities of HTTP 1.1.
