HAProxy is an open-source, fast, and reliable reverse proxy for TCP and HTTP applications. It provides load balancing and ensures high availability and better performance, particularly for high-traffic websites. It has become the de facto load balancer, commonly used in mainstream services like GitHub, Twitter, and major cloud platforms.
