Overview

Deploy and configure load balancers to distribute traffic across multiple backend servers, ensuring high availability, fault tolerance, and optimal resource utilization across your infrastructure.

When to Use

Multi-server traffic distribution
High availability and failover
Session persistence and sticky sessions
Health checking and auto-recovery
SSL/TLS termination
Cross-region load balancing
API rate limiting at load balancer
DDoS mitigation

Quick Start

Minimal working example:

# /etc/haproxy/haproxy.cfg
global
    log stdout local0
    log stdout local1 notice
    maxconn 4096
    daemon

    # Security
    tune.ssl.default-dh-param 2048
    ssl-default-bind-ciphers ECDHE-ECDSA-AES128-GCM-SHA256:ECDHE-RSA-AES128-GCM-SHA256
    ssl-default-bind-options ssl-min-ver TLSv1.2

defaults
    log global
    mode http
    option httplog
    option denylogin
    option forwardfor
    option http-server-close

    # Timeouts
    timeout connect 5000
    timeout client 50000
    timeout server 50000

Best Practices

✅ DO

Implement health checks
Use connection pooling
Enable session persistence when needed
Monitor load balancer metrics
Implement rate limiting
Use multiple availability zones
Enable SSL/TLS termination
Implement graceful connection draining

❌ DON'T

Allow single point of failure
Skip health check configuration
Mix HTTP and HTTPS without redirect
Ignore backend server limits
Over-provision without monitoring
Cache sensitive responses
Use default security groups
Neglect backup load balancers
