I don't know where you got that. You'd install an nginx (or caddy, my preference) reverse proxy on exactly the same hardware you were running your HTTP site, or if that machine is too foreign you can buy an old laptop, put the reverse proxy on it and forward to your site. There is nothing centralized with that.
