WALTHAM, Mass., Feb. 03, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- HAProxy Technologies, the company behind the world’s fastest and most widely used software load balancer, today announced the HAProxy User Spotlight series, a video library showcasing how some of the world's top architects and engineers chose to implement HAProxy within their application architectures. The initial 18 user testimonials are taken from the inaugural HAProxy User Conference, HAProxyConf 2019, which took place November 12-13 in Amsterdam, The Netherlands.
Watch the first HAProxy User Spotlight, “Moving Yammer to the Cloud,” a presentation from Tobias Haag, Software Engineer Lead at Yammer at Microsoft.
HAProxyConf 2019 was attended by hundreds of IT professionals, systems architects, and SREs responsible for designing reliable infrastructure. The real-world user presentations, which ranged from very large companies handling billions of requests per day down to single person infrastructure teams, were a conference highlight. Attendees were able to gain a unique insight into how HAProxy is being harnessed at scale across a variety of architectures from replacing traditional hardware load balancers to using it within modern cloud-native and microservices focused environments.
HAProxy Technologies will publish one or two videos a week until all 18 are publicly available. Each HAProxy User Spotlight testimonial showcases a first-hand account from cutting-edge organizations, including:
- Tobias Haag from Yammer at Microsoft presented Moving Yammer to the Cloud: Building a Scalable and Secure Service Mesh with HAProxy;
- Vincent Gallissot from RTL Group / M6 presented RTL's Journey to Kubernetes with HAProxy;
