Yup. This is just a straightforward client. Unfamiliar with dbgate but just looked at the docs. It’s also just a client as well. Unsure what other backend service you may have been referring to.
It seems there is a misunderstanding. To be clear, this is what I mean:
┌───────────────────────┐
│ Browser │
└───────────────────────┘
▲
│ port 443open
│
│
┌────┼──────────────────┐
│ Proxy (traefik) │
└───────────────────────┘
▲
│
│ web port open to proxy
│
│
┌────┼──────────────────┐
│ DBgate (in docker) │
└───────────────────────┘
▲

│

┌────┼──────────────────┐
│ Database │
└───────────────────────┘
This way DBgate serves the web app to the browser, but also acts as a ‘backend’ which connects to the database. This way my databases are not exposed to the web, only the proxy is, which handles domain name routing and http traffic.
Huh? This is a database client. There is no backend. You point it to a database, and it connects to the database. That’s all it does.
I’m not sure what other backend you may be referring to, but it will use whatever network your desktop is using for comms.
Are you sure? Because thats how dbgate works, and I thought this was similar.
