A proxy is an "intermediary" between a client and a server.
A typical proxy use case is server balancing. Let’s assume that a site has 10 servers. However, the site only receives requests by a proxy, which redirects each request received to one of the 10 servers, so that the workload is divided equally between the 10 servers.
Another use case is the cache proxy. In this case, repetitive requests and static pages like images, scripts, etc stay in the proxy memory, not on disk, to improve response performance. Generally speaking, only dynamic pages would be passed to backend servers.
