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.

Mi empresa ha utilizado HA desde que comencé hace 6 años y todo lo que puedo decir es que cuando una herramienta es sólida y funciona, simplemente funciona. Tenemos 3 proxys en total equilibrados entre nuestros sistemas de etapa y producción y maneja el tráfico de carga perfectamente. El soporte en el canal de Slack es un punto destacado, especialmente si estás tratando de encontrar una solución para una regla o una forma de reescribir una regla para optimizarla. En general, recomiendo altamente HAProxy para cualquiera que busque una solución de balanceo de carga robusta y eficiente. También puede agregar soporte WAF si no quieres lidiar con un proveedor de WAF dedicado.

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.
