    HAProxy Enterprise Ingress Controller

     Info

    Overview

    Kubernetes is an open-source platform for scaling containerized workloads across a fleet of machines. It can intelligently schedule work only onto hosts that have the CPU and memory resources needed to run a given container. The challenge is that containers within a Kubernetes cluster typically communicate over a private overlay network. How should you expose services within the cluster to external clients? The answer is to bring the power of HAProxy to Kubernetes. The HAProxy Ingress Controller is the most efficient way to route traffic into a Kubernetes cluster.

    Highlights

    • Simplify your infrastructure by routing ingress traffic using one IP address and port. Requests are routed to the correct pod based on the Host header and request path
    • Balance traffic among pods using any of HAProxy's load-balancing algorithms including round-robin, least connections, URL hash and random.
    • Secure your cluster with built-in SSL termination, rate limiting, and IP whitelisting

    What do you like best about the product?
    I've known about HAProxy for years and always heard good things about it. We've been users of the CE version for years now and it is software that makes sense, does what it advertises and its fast, not bloated.

    We certainly like the dataplane API and the flexibility it offers. Some people might dislike having to configure something via the command line (at least in the CE version) but as someone that has done this for decades, this is a plus to us.
    What do you dislike about the product?
    I would love for an automatic way to save transient data in the CE version, but I understand there being none.
    What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
    We keep our admin, reporting and api components on separate servers and with different security profiles. HAProxy is ideal for this.

    Fantastic Value with Best In Class Customer Service

    Reviewed on Jan 24, 2025

    What do you like best about the product?
    We've been using HAProxy for around a decade, initially starting with the Community Edition and gradually expanding its footprint. We used industry-standard SLBs from major vendors, but the exorbitant price tags and outrageous support costs were becoming unsustainable. Two years ago, we leaped HAProxy Enterprise Edition (HAPEE) with the Fusion Control Plane (FCP), and it's been a game-changer.

    Here's what we love:

    Performance: HAPEE's performance is impressive. Even without leveraging hardware acceleration (which they support through Xeon Platinum chips), it easily handles our traffic load.

    Stability: Since migrating, we've experienced rock-solid stability. HAPEE has proven to be a reliable workhorse.

    Full configurability: HAPEE offers complete control and customization, allowing us to tailor it precisely to our needs.

    Fusion Control Plane (FCP): The FCP has revolutionized our workflow, enabling full transactional changes across our clusters. This was a huge pain point with our previous solutions.

    Unbeatable Support: This is arguably HAPEE's strongest point. The support team is phenomenal. They're available through Slack, providing near-instantaneous responses and practical solutions. We've dealt with companies charging 10x or 30x more for support that pales in comparison. HAProxy's support team sets a new standard.

    Cost-Effectiveness: The pricing for HAPEE is significantly lower than any other comparable solution on the market. It's a breath of fresh air after years of being squeezed by our previous vendors.

    Community Edition: We also utilize the HAProxy Community Edition for simpler micro-deployments, and it also excels in that role.

    We've moved to HAProxy EE, and the cost/performance/support are so good we are not looking back.
    What do you dislike about the product?
    Honestly, there's not much to dislike, but the Fusion Control Plane (FCP) has some growing pains. While it does many things exceptionally well, it's still under active development, and occasional kinks need to be ironed out, or some things you would expect haven't been implemented yet.
    What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
    We use it at the edge and in internal clusters along with with keepalive to balance traffic and provide redundancy.

    What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
    We recently implemented HAProxy for our load balancing needs, and the experience has been outstanding. We began with a proof of concept (POC) that was both smooth and highly successful, thanks to the amazing support from the HAProxy team.

    Their team was incredibly responsive and knowledgeable, guiding us through the nuances of the platform and helping us tailor the solution to fit our specific needs. This level of support played a crucial role in gaining stakeholder confidence during the POC.

    The implementation process was seamless, and the resources provided by HAProxy made the transition efficient. The platform has performed exceptionally well in the development phase on through the production implementation, offering reliability and scalability.

    HAProxy has proven to be an excellent addition to our infrastructure. The level of professionalism and expertise shown by the HAProxy team ensures that we continue to meet our high availability and performance requirements with confidence.

    Performance is outstanding.

    What do you like best about the product?
    HAProxy stands out for its exceptional performance in dynamic and high-load environments, making. The addition of the Fusion control plane further enhances its capabilities, providing powerful tools for managing and securing large-scale deployments. Whether you need efficient load balancing, comprehensive observability, or advanced security, HAProxy with Fusion offers a robust solution.

    Customer service was wonderul to work with. I had two initial questions that were solved easily from support over email. This made implementation quick and easy. Converting our NGINX over to HAProxy was a trivial and the Fusion Control Plan intergrates well and makes changes and versioning easy.
    What do you dislike about the product?
    For smaller deployments a single node with Fusion deployment would be ideal. We work with a lot of SMB businesses that the price is limiting our options for HAProxy.
    What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
    Better performance over our previous NGINX deployment. We experienced timeouts and general issues with NGINX that HAPRoxy resolved with minimal configuration.

    When a tool works. It just works!!!

    What do you like best about the product?
    My company has used HA since I started 6 years ago and all I can say when a tool is rock solid and it works it just works. We have 3 total proxys loadbalanced between our stage and production systems and it handles the load traffic perfectly. The support in the slack channel is a highlight especially if your trying to find a solution for a rule or a way to rewrite a rule to optimize it. Overall, I highly recommend HAProxy for anyone looking for a robust and efficient load balancing solution. It can also add WAF support if you don't want deal with a dedicated WAF provider.
    What do you dislike about the product?
    The dislike are small but can bite you from time to time for newcomers that use apache or nginx the language curve could be alot to over come but HA does have a good wiki to find out rules. Besides that I don't have any issues.
    What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
    Having the ability to remove nodes and add nodes to the stack without downtime and being a buffer between our servers and the internet.
