Powered by 20+ years of community development and feedback, HAProxy Enterprise has grown to support numerous use cases. Here's a brief snapshot of how our offerings compare.
HAProxy Community
HAProxy is the world’s fastest and most widely used open-source software load balancer and application delivery controller. It powers high-traffic websites worldwide and has become the de-facto standard open-source load balancer.
HAProxy Enterprise
HAProxy Enterprise combines HAProxy with powerful, enterprise-class features, services, and premium support. It's tailored to the goals, requirements, and infrastructure of modern enterprises.
Scalable and observable operation of your load balancing and WAF infrastructure
HAProxy Fusion Control Plane provides a single pane of glass for centralized management, monitoring, and automation of HAProxy Enterprise.
From small, single cluster labs to large, production environments, HAProxy Fusion Control Plane supports HAProxy Enterprise deployments of any size. DevSecOps can manage multiple fleets of load balancers, regardless of whether they’re deployed on-premises or in the cloud.
Management
Centralized management is the cornerstone of HAProxy Fusion, enabling scalable and secure application delivery from a single pane of glass. Central management of configuration, security policy, SSL certificates, authentication, and user administration are at your fingertips.
Monitoring
Keep track of your HAProxy Enterprise instances with unified observability, monitoring your application delivery logs, metrics, and reports all in one place. HAProxy Fusion empowers you to see all, enabling resiliency and problem solving at both small and large scales.
Automation
Save time managing large-scale deployments. Integrate with AWS autoscaling, Ansible, or any API. Automate K8s networking and app routing with service discovery and lightning-fast dynamic config for large-scale deployments.
Robust security and administration
HAProxy Enterprise features a suite of add-ons for advanced administration and security. Our proprietary modules extend the functionality of HAProxy Community without sacrificing the performance you’ve come to expect.
HAProxy Enterprise ships with the following modules, and more:
Next-generation HAProxy Enterprise WAF provides exceptional balanced accuracy and optional OWASP CRS compatibility with massively-boosted performance and low false positives.
