What problem are you trying to solve by doing this? It seems to serve little purpose. Decrypt the traffic from the browser using Apache httpd, then re-encrypt the data and pass it onto tomcat. Why? I am sure it will work fine, but your performance will depend on the traffic you have. No one can answer that question for you.

It would be nice if I can hear from someone who has done such familiar setup. Have you seen any performance issues in setting up SSL both at Tomcat and Apache? Do you use same keys/certs at both Tomcat and Apache?

Now, I am trying to front Tomcat with apache reverse proxy+SSL. 1. Is it not redundant to configure the SSL in the Tomcat as well when the fronting reverse proxy is already configured to handle SSL. I see lot of posts on the internet which configure SSL at both Tomcat and Reverse proxy. Am I missing something?
