Overview
Tinyproxy is a light-weight HTTP/HTTPS proxy daemon for POSIX operating systems. It is very useful in a small network setting, where a larger proxy would either be too resource-intensive or a security risk.
One of the key features of Tinyproxy is the buffering connection concept. In effect, Tinyproxy will buffer a high-speed response from a server, and then relay it to a client at the highest speed the client will accept.
This feature greatly reduces the problems with sluggishness on the Internet. If you are sharing an Internet connection with a small network, and you only want to allow HTTP requests, then Tinyproxy is a great tool for the network administrator.
Whether you use a simple dial-up modem or high-speed fiber, TinyProxy Server can help to make the most out of the connection. It supports a wide variety of Internet protocols, allowing applications such as web browsers, messaging software, FTP, and SSL.
Tidal Media Inc. leverages your productivity and cost-effectivity by providing this pre-configured and ready-to-run Image of TinyProxy Server. The Image has been pre-tested for seamless performance in AWS Marketplace, deploys instantaneously, and ensures you with a robust Proxy Server in minutes after purchasing.
Highlights
- Tinyproxy has a small footprint and requires very little in the way of system resources. The memory footprint tends to be around 2 MB with glibc, and the CPU load increases linearly with the number of simultaneous connections.
- Tinyproxy requires only a minimal POSIX environment to build and operate. It can use additional libraries to add functionality though.
- Tinyproxy supports being configured as a transparent proxy so that a proxy can be used without requiring any client-side configuration. You can also use it as a reverse proxy front-end for your websites.

Amazon Machine Image (AMI)
An AMI is a virtual image that provides the information required to launch an instance. Amazon EC2 (Elastic Compute Cloud) instances are virtual servers on which you can run your applications and workloads, offering varying combinations of CPU, memory, storage, and networking resources. You can launch as many instances from as many different AMIs as you need.
