I really am amazed at the stability and quality of the HAProxy project and that since it's inception many , many years ago.<p>We use it on many of our projects and it has always been a very reliable piece of software, even at high traffic.<p>Kudos Willy and team, congratulations on the release!<p>-b
> haproxy can now be built with native systemd support using USE_SYSTEMD=1 and starting it with -Ws (systemd-aware master-worker mode).<p>What features/integrations make sense for a proxy with systemd? I'd assume it's only a unit that comes with the package, but that "-Ws" makes me wonder if there're deeper integrations.
If anyone is wondering, as I was, what haproxy is, it's a "reliable, high performance TCP/HTTP load balancer."<p><a href="http://www.haproxy.org/" rel="nofollow">http://www.haproxy.org/</a>
Great ! I'm using it since 1.4 on projects that are reliable because of it. It's a great software.<p>Now I know what my week R&D time will be : HTTP2 in HAProxy !
I do hope that HAProxy might support ACME at some point, I'm currently stuck on Traefik which has been breaking some traffic but I rely heavily on dynamically issued LE certs.<p>Otherwise, outside of SSL, HAProxy has been very pleasant in my experience.
Do people really announce new releases just over email and things like mail-archive or? Those mail archives always looked strange to me for some unknown reason.
