Chris - it sounds like you are set with Nginx. We have just started testing with Proxy/ReverseProxy for Apache. For Apache 2.4 you need to add some proxy rules for web sockets. There are some useful tips here https://www.happyassassin.net/2018/11/23/reverse-proxying-websockets-with-apache-a-generic-approach-that-works-even-with-firefox/ . We follow this recipe and have updated our mod_proxy configuration from

Before

     ProxyPreserveHost On
     RewriteEngine on
     ProxyPass        "/" "http://localhost:2080/"
     ProxyPassReverse "/" "http://localhost:2080/"
     ProxyRequests off

to After

     ProxyPreserveHost On
     RewriteEngine on
     RewriteCond %{HTTP:Upgrade} websocket [NC]
     RewriteCond %{HTTP:Connection} upgrade [NC]
     RewriteRule .* "ws://localhost:2080%{REQUEST_URI}" [P]
     ProxyPass        "/" "http://localhost:2080/"
     ProxyPassReverse "/" "http://localhost:2080/"
     ProxyRequests off

At moment the proxy is just against a Docker container with OOD on same host. We have not tried combining with a Proxy balancer yet.
