3. Introduction to HAProxy

  1. HAProxy is written as "HAProxy" to designate the product, and as "haproxy" to
  2. designate the executable program, software package or a process. However, both
  3. are commonly used for both purposes, and are pronounced H-A-Proxy. Very early,
  4. "haproxy" used to stand for "high availability proxy" and the name was written
  5. in two separate words, though by now it means nothing else than "HAProxy".
