Andrei Kvapil a120ce726e DX: Use generic Makefile for packages (#288)
This change is aimed at improving the development experience.

- The option `make delete` has been added.
- Added check for `NAME` and `NAMESPACE` variables
- Now, any package (not just system ones) can include options such as
make show, make diff, make apply.
- Applications from packages/extra require explicit specification of the
`NAMESPACE`.
- Applications from packages/apps require explicit specification of both
`NAME` and `NAMESPACE`.

Managed Nginx Caching Service

The Nginx Caching Service is designed to optimize web traffic and enhance web application performance. This service combines custom-built Nginx instances with HAproxy for efficient caching and load balancing.

Deployment infromation

The Nginx instances include the following modules and features:

  • VTS module for statistics
  • Integration with ip2location
  • Integration with ip2proxy
  • Support for 51Degrees
  • Cache purge functionality

HAproxy plays a vital role in this setup by directing incoming traffic to specific Nginx instances based on a consistent hash calculated from the URL. Each Nginx instance includes a Persistent Volume Claim (PVC) for storing cached content, ensuring fast and reliable access to frequently used resources.

Deployment Details

The deployment architecture is illustrated in the diagram below:
