Yo, setting up a proxy server Amazon isn’t too hard if you’re comfy with AWS. Spin up an EC2 instance, install Squid or TinyProxy, and configure it.
But security-wise? Don’t skip the firewall rules! Lock down your instance with security groups and maybe even use SSH tunneling.
Performance boost? Eh, it’s okay for light stuff, but if you’re doing heavy scraping, you might wanna pair it with a CDN or just go for a dedicated proxy service.
