The proxy reuses sockets just after the upstream has closed them.
Estimated field mix
A slow upstream creates an unlimited queue behind a finite connection pool.
Estimated field mix
A cancelled report download continues consuming upstream bandwidth.
Estimated field mix
The proxy retries a POST after its connection breaks, potentially duplicating a write.
Estimated field mix
Buffering simplifies upstream retries but large reports exhaust proxy memory.
Estimated field mix
Configuration reloads close active report streams immediately.
Estimated field mix
Operators need to distinguish header rejection, pool waiting, and upstream disconnects.

A certificate signed by the internal CA is accepted for any service name.

Correct proxy behavior for trusted forwarding, connection reuse, and streaming cancellation.
Operate authenticated service connections through expiry, rotation, and trust changes.
Fetch approved external resources through a bounded provider-neutral network boundary.
Diagnose address-family, packet-size, and routing failures in an authorized local lab.
Practice scoped changes, keep a portable implementation and verification record, and learn to explain operational tradeoffs. Choose a ticket whose prerequisites you can provide.
Use realistic work to structure onboarding, internal practice, and conversations about engineering decisions. Each project names the delivery benefit. Agree scope and compensation before requesting company-specific work.
