A lightweight, high-performance, and secure reverse proxy with a binary size of around 5MB. Securely expose local services behind a firewall to the public internet.
## Features
- **High performance**: high performance, packet-loss resilient, high throughput, no GC pauses, and low memory usage
- **Tunnel protocols**: TCP, UDP, HTTP, HTTPS,SOCKS5 and more
- **Transport protocols**: TCP, KCP, WebSocket, QUIC, with TCP multiplexing support
- **Security**: Token-based tunnel authentication, TLS and mTLS encryption; HTTPS supports transparent forwarding and client-side TLS termination
- **Cross-platform**: Windows, Linux, macOS, FreeBSD, and more
- **Operations**: lightweight server-side Web admin UI and cross-platform native desktop client; supports config hot-reload and ACME automatic certificate issuance
## Quick Start
[Download](https://github.com/orbien-org/orbien/tags) the binary archive for your platform and extract it.
### Server
```toml
# orbien-server.toml
listen = "0.0.0.0:9527"
```
```shell
./orbien-server -c orbien-server.toml
```
### Client
```toml
# orbien.toml
server = "127.0.0.1:9527"
[[tunnels]]
name = "ssh"
protocol = "tcp"
service = "127.0.0.1:22"
remotePort = 9000
```
```shell
./orbien -c orbien.toml
```
If you prefer not to use the CLI, try the [Orbien-Desktop](https://github.com/orbien-org/orbien/releases) desktop native GUI client.
## Benchmark
| Env | Details |
|-----|---------|
| Platform | macOS 26.2 · Darwin 25.2.0 · arm64 |
| Hardware | Apple M2 (8 cores) · 16 GB |
| Details | [benchmarks](https://github.com/orbien-org/benchmarks) |
To rule out various sources of interference, these benchmarks were run on local loopback. Compared with `frp`, Orbien's clearest advantage is lower and steadier memory usage under high concurrency.
