HAProxy as a loadbalancer in production
What do you like best about the product?
HAProxy can be setup within minutes and can start working. ACLS are the most favorite part that I like , we can distribute our traffic on different domains using ACL. Also the ability of dynamically applying the right SSL certificate for a domain in case of multiple domains with SSL is the best.
What do you dislike about the product?
It should provide some hint or example files configuration for quick setup.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
HAproxy can act as your production load balancer, that can distribute your traffic on HTTPS on different backends based on ACL. I use haproxy for SSL offloading for my backend wildfly servers. We can have 2 haproxy servers to achieve high availability of haproxy load balancer.
A trusty tool
What do you like best about the product?
HA Proxy is simple to use and reliable. It does one basic thing, and it does it well. The interface is clean and easy to use, the web monitoring is fine, easy to hook up - and can be used for a variety of services - not just for HTTP/HTTPS only. The best thing about it is the ease of use - one config file, and everything is easy to configure - or automate. Also, there are many plugins for automation tools, so you can plug it into ansible, puppet, or whatever you use.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is very little to dislike about it - maybe it's the speed of adopting new things, but that's about it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I've used it to solve not only reverse proxy/load balancing of HTTP servers but also various other services - database, search.... a lot. It solved issues regarding both availability and load balancing.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
As far as generic proxy solutions go, this is probably the best in the F/OSS space. It's very stable, robust, and supports a lot. There are specialized tools that can be better for specialized cases, but for a generic HA proxy (as the name implies) this is a very good solution. Also, when there is no specialized tool - this one will work in almost any case.
