There are some issues that need to be considered; for example, you
will need to make sure that the reverse proxy connection does not time
out faster than idle Athena transports are closed, 300 seconds by
default[1]. I suppose there are other weird things a reverse proxy
might do that could cause problems, but I'm not sure of anything else
you specifically need to worry about.
