High Availability Proxy is an open source proxy and load balancer. It is frequently used to improve server performance and reliability by distributing the workload across multiple servers. With a variety of advanced features, such as SSL support, real-time monitoring, and traffic compression, HAProxy has become a standard choice for highly available, high-traffic system needs.
