Hi,

As Francisco already pointed out, this can't work with nginx either. The
client resolves the alias and the TCP packets only contain the IP
address, not the alias which was used to get that address. So nginx
simply doesn't have that information and therefore can't act on it.

For HTTP this works because the HTTP protocol contains a Host field
which the client fills with the name it used. But the Postgres protocol
has no such information (and in any case nginx probably doesn't
understand that protocol anyway).

So (again, as Francisco already wrote) the best way is probably to write
a simple proxy which uses the database (not DNS) name for routing. I
seem to remember that nginx has a plugin architecture for protocols so
it might make sense to write that as an nginx plugin instead of a
standalone server, but that's really a judgement call the programmer has
to make. Another possibility would of course be to extend pgbouncer to
do what the OP needs.

yeah I know
I looked at his setup definition only and missed the point that he wants a single entry point for all.
The image doesnt match this. Looks like a simple forward proxy definition.

anyway, fw or nginx cant look into tcp streams nor does it makes sense to me. Maybe without tls
