    Tien Ngo Thanh Yes you can use Azure application gateway for this. Application gateway works at Application Layer (Layer 7) and can act as a reverse proxy services. Application gateway will terminate the client connection and forward the request to back endpoints. In addition application gateway will provide following functionality:

    1. SSL offloading  - Application Gateway can receive request on https and route that to internal servers running on http. You can also configure SSL protocol version
    2. Analyze traffic statistics: You can view and analyze Access logs via several mechanisms such as Azure Log Analytics, Excel, Power BI etc.
    3. VPN tunnels/Express route and VNet Peering is supported

    There are many more features and advantages. I hope this helps
