what's sad about haproxy that it still does not support H2 (HTTP/2). I mean a load balancer should at least support it on the front end.
Well haproxy is still great and one of the best load balancers out there.
But it's still sad that it misses h2 on the frontend.
(Well backend would be cool, but there aren't that many load balancers that can do that anyway).
I'm pretty sure haproxy 1.8 will at least give experimental support! which would be awesome.
- spiderfarmer 9y agoThat was a deal breaker for me. HTTP/2 was a great performance boost for my projects and I'm not switching back.
- _joel 9y agoAre you sure? https://cbonte.github.io/haproxy-dconv/1.7/intro.html https://cbonte.github.io/haproxy-dconv/1.7/intro.html " - TLS NPN and ALPN extensions make it possible to reliably offload SPDY/HTTP2 connections and pass them in clear text to backend servers"
- merb 9y agoit supports the TLS ALPN extension which means tcp (haproxy) <-> backend server or nginx <-> backend server over h2
