Realm is a simple, high-performance network relay server written in Rust that forwards TCP and UDP traffic between endpoints. It supports zero-configuration one-command setup, load balancing, and optional ws/tls/wss transports, and can run in containers.

Use cases

  • forward a port through a relay server
  • relay TCP and UDP traffic between two hosts
  • set up a lightweight traffic relay with one command
  • load balance connections across multiple backends
  • tunnel relay traffic over TLS or websocket
  • run a relay server in Docker or Kubernetes

When to choose

  • you need a fast, low-resource TCP/UDP relay with minimal configuration
  • you want built-in load balancing or proxy-protocol support
  • you prefer a single static Rust binary that runs anywhere

When to avoid

  • you need a full SOCKS/HTTP proxy client with routing rules
  • you need traffic obfuscation or censorship-circumvention features
  • you want a GUI or managed proxy service
