# HAProxy

Canonical: https://www.softwareadvice.co.uk/software/456772/HAProxy-Enterprise-Edition

> HAProxy is an application delivery and security platform that serves small businesses, mid-market companies, and enterprise organizations across industries such as finance, e-commerce, and technology. The software can be deployed cloud-based or on-premises, giving teams flexibility based on their infrastructure needs. Core features include load balancing, which distributes traffic across servers to maintain availability; a web application firewall that helps block malicious requests; SSL/TLS termination for encrypted connections; and real-time traffic monitoring with detailed analytics. Health checks automatically detect and route around failing servers, reducing downtime. Rate limiting controls how much traffic individual clients can send, helping protect against abuse. HAProxy suits teams managing high-traffic applications who need fine-grained control over how requests are handled. Support is available through community forums, official documentation, a knowledge base, and paid support plans that include direct access to technical staff during business hours and around the clock for critical issues.
