server {
    listen  443;

    # dns resolver used by forward proxying
    resolver  114.114.114.114;

    # forward proxy for CONNECT request
    proxy_connect;
    proxy_connect_allow            443;
    proxy_connect_connect_timeout  10s;
    proxy_connect_read_timeout     10s;
    proxy_connect_send_timeout     10s;

    # forward proxy for non-CONNECT request
    location / {
        proxy_pass http://$host;
        proxy_set_header Host $host;
    }
}

upstream backend {
    server backend1.example.com       weight=5; # by default 1
    server backend2.example.com:8080;
    server unix:/tmp/backend3;

    server backup1.example.com:8080   backup;
    server backup2.example.com:8080   backup;
}

server {
    location / {
        proxy_pass http://backend;  # same name of upstream
    }
}
