HAProxy is an open-source load balancer and proxy server for TCP and HTTP-based applications, offering high availability, load balancing, and proxy functionality. It is designed to improve the performance and reliability of a server environment by distributing the workload across multiple servers. HAProxy is known for its efficiency, security, and low resource consumption, making it widely adopted for high traffic websites and applications.
Networking, in the context of computer science and information technology, refers to the practice of connecting computers, servers, mainframes, network devices, peripherals, or other devices to exchange data and share resources. It encompasses both the physical (hardware) and logical (software) aspects of connections between devices. The primary goal of networking is to enable the sharing of data and resources, thereby improving efficiency and accessibility within and across computing environments. Networks can vary in size, ranging from simple local area networks (LANs) connecting a few devices in a single office, to complex wide area networks (WANs) spanning multiple geographic locations around the globe. Networking technologies and protocols facilitate communication and data transfer across these connections, adhering to standardized rules to ensure reliable and secure information exchange.
Our experience with HAProxy helped us develop repeatable architectures, configuration standards, and operational runbooks that we reuse to help clients manage and balance network traffic at scale with predictable performance and high availability.
Some of the things we did include:
This experience helped us accumulate significant knowledge across HAProxy use-cases—from edge routing to internal service balancing—and enables us to deliver HAProxy setups that are maintainable, observable, and reliable in production.
