This is a reverse HTTP proxy over websockets. The aim is to securely make call to internal APIs from outside.
a WSP client runs in the internal network ( alongside the APIs ) and connects to a remote WSP server with HTTP websockets.
One issue HTTP requests to the WSP server with an extra HTTP header 'X-PROXY-DESTINATION: "http://api.internal/resource"' to the /request endpoint.
The WSP Server then forward the request to the WSP Client over the one of the offered websockets. The WSP Client receive and execute locally an HTTP request to the URL provided in X-PROXY-DESTINATION and forwards the HTTP response back to the WSP server which in turn forwards the response back to the client. Please note that no buffering of any sort occurs.
If several WSP clients connect to a WSP server, requests will be spread in a random way to all the WSP clients.

For now TLS setup should be implemented using an HTTP reverse proxy like NGinx or Apache...

- poolMinSize is the default number of opened TCP/HTTP/WS connections to open per WSP server. If there is a burst of simpultaneous requests the number of open connection will rise and then decrease back to this number.
- poolMinIdleSize is the number of connection to keep idle, meaning that if there is more than this number of simultaneous requests the WSP client will try to open more connections to keep idle connection.
- poolMaxSize is the maximum number of simultaneous connection that the proxy will ever initiate per WSP server.
