HAProxy reduced Liftoff's costs by 87.6% and latency by 75%. 📉

And when a major outage revealed blind spots in the surrounding architecture, the answer was clear: remove the abstraction layers and let HAProxy do what it does best.

We're looking for a passionate Systems Engineer to join us at HAProxy Technologies and helping engineers get the most out of the world's fastest and most widely used software load balancer!

You'll be the person customers turn to when things get hard, troubleshooting complex issues across Linux environments, networking stacks, web servers, containers, Kubernetes, and more!

If you're from the US or Canada, are service-minded, comfortable working independently, and energized by solving real problems for engineers at scale, we'd love to hear from you!

One day to go for this live session! ⌛

NetScaler's licensing model changed in ways that affect even perpetual license holders. File-based activation is gone, and what replaced it ties every license to Citrix Cloud.

The question is no longer whether to migrate, it's when and how to do it without disrupting what's already running. This session answers that question directly, with a realistic cutover path that lets both stacks run side by side until you are ready to make the switch.

Your encrypted traffic is being collected right now. Not to decrypt today, but later, once quantum computing catches up.

The attack is called "harvest now, decrypt later" and it leaves no trace. By the time you know it happened, the window will have long since closed.

The vulnerability lives in the key exchange step of the TLS handshake, and the handshakes being recorded today contain data with a long sensitive shelf life. Such data includes medical records, financial transactions, government communications, and intellectual property.

We're looking for a Product Manager to help shape the future of HAProxy One, the world's fastest application delivery and security platform!

If you have a background in load balancing, web security, cloud environments, or Kubernetes and you want to work on infrastructure that the world depends on, we want to hear from you.

You'll own the roadmap, work directly with engineering, sales, marketing, and a global open source community, and help define how teams around the world experience HAProxy products.

Full-time and fully remote across the US, Canada, and Europe.

Summer has arrived and it's not being subtle about it. ☀️ But while everyone else is arguing about who gets the pool float, infrastructure teams are busy managing a different kind of pool entirely.

A backend pool is a collection of servers, virtual machines, or containers that power an application or API. Load balancers distribute traffic across them based on health, connection load, and chosen algorithms. When one server goes down, traffic routes to another automatically, keeping requests flowing without interruption.

Liftoff achieved an 87.6% cost reduction and a 75% improvement in latency by upgrading to HAProxy. At 1.5 trillion bid requests a month across 150 geographies, those are not marginal gains.

When Liftoff's traffic scaled, so did the costs, the vendor lock-in, and the performance constraints that threatened the ultra-low latency their ad tech platform depends on.

Upgrading to HAProxy provided Liftoff with more than simple cost savings. Read more:

Liftoff's story highlights success metrics and invaluable lessons in observability and monitoring, ultimately reshaping their entire architecture approach.

If you're still on a perpetual NetScaler license, you're not as insulated as you think.

File-based activation ended April 15, 2026, and now every license must authenticate through Citrix Cloud via LAS.

Join this live session where we'll show you how to map MPX and VPX directly to HAProxy, including how HAProxy Fusion replaces NetScaler Console for multi-instance management. You'll also learn how to run both stacks side by side during cutover.
