Comment on Running ejabberd behind a reverse proxy
thelastknowngod@lemm.ee 1 year agoIstio is a service mesh. You basically run proxies on the vps and the rpi. The apps make calls to localhost and the proxy layer figures out the communication between each proxy.
Duck dns is just a dynamic dns service. It gives you a stable address even if you don’t have a static ip.

How would I use that in this situation? I don’t get it. I already have a vpn set up to communicate between the two devices, and have been successfully running multiple services in this configuration for about a month. It’s just XMPP that I’m having trouble with.

It auto discovers machines/instances/VMs/containers in the mesh and figures out the secure routing on the fly. If you couldn’t ensure a consistent IP from the home address it wouldn’t matter… The service mesh would work it out.
It is probably overkill for this project though… Something to think about…
