Hi Cary_Chai, 

We've requirement for header-based routing between aws and azure. Our application is deployed in azure container apps and also in aws. Based on request header value, the request should be redirect to either azure application gateway or to RDP gateway in aws. Then the gateway can forward the request to required backend pools.
Could you please confirm if Nginx can help to satisfy this requirement?
If yes, please let us know where the nginx can be installed (inside aca or azure vm).

Regards,

Subhiksha.
