Hosting company that provides a reverse proxy and couchdb?

Hi List,

I Asked before on this list if there is a possibility to prevent replication
of my couch website.
The reason is that I would like to prevent visitors of my website to "steal"
the design of the website that I put years of development in.

As I understand, this can be done by using:   a rewrite rule + a vhost + a
reverse proxy.

By my knowledge a reverse proxy is not part of couchdb, so I'm looking for a
hosting company that provides both couchdb and a reverse proxy.
Does anybody know of a hosting company that does both?

Kind regards,
Hendrik Jan

Hi,

Thank you all for your replies.
So far I found a couple of dutch providers that provide Couchdb on Linux.
Only they are still about 10x as expensive as those without couchdb.

(searching on google for "linux hosting nederland couchdb" and only sites
with dutch language gave me good results, in case anybody else is
looking for couchdb hosters)

Kind regards,
Hendrik Jan

Almost true, except that a large part of the site is a javascript
application that communicates with a database.
Hopefully I can use a couchdb database for that.

You are right that somebody could still get all the information needed to
rebuild the site.
I just don't like the idea that it would be as easy as replicating.

Kind regards,
H

I may be misreading you, but surely the design of your website is in
the html, javascript, css and images which are send to everyone that
visits your site?

True. But he was asking for a couch hosting service as well, not just a basic lamp host.

Ummm... it's called Apache + mod_proxy.  You can pretty much get this 
from anybody.
