I use Apache too (it's all I've ever known), and run a few Go web apps. Everyone lives quite peacefully together. With Apache, I just set up a simple reverse proxy.

Here's an example of one I use to run my own `godoc` server:

    <VirtualHost *:80>
        ServerAdmin admin@burntsushi.net
        ServerName godoc.burntsushi.net
        ProxyPreserveHost On
        ProxyPass / http://burntsushi.net:8080/
        ProxyPassReverse / http://burntsushi.net:8080/
    </VirtualHost>

Nice idea.

I might try that before dipping my toes into Nginx

Yeah, it's a nice holdover. I keep hearing great things about Nginx though. Someday I'll have time to check it out :-)
