I use the solution in my company for TCP streams. I have not used the product for web servers like Apache and NGINX. I have used the product for SMTP and SMPP protocols. I also used the tool for email services and POP3 servers. HAProxy handles the area where traffic has to be forwarded from one port to another very well.
The main use cases are for load balancing and limiting traffic. It is utilized as a front-end server for balancing HTTP traffic, as well as for balancing traffic between application servers and database servers like Redis and Elasticsearch. HAProxy is employed for both HTTP and TCP load balancing purposes, ensuring optimal resource utilization and preventing overloading of any single server.
We use it as a load balancer for our application servers, including Bonita, VPMN, our NAS reporting tools, and Telus solutions. We have two or four applications in the back end and use HAProxy as a load balancer.

I use it for managing Redis clusters where I have a front-end for a read-write and a front-end for a read-only. I have no idea who else in my company uses it. I had opted to use this because we have silos in our company. We have a network silo that does the load balancing, and I wanted to control how these tests worked with the load balancing. I wanted them to do load balancing where they hand off like a TCP Fast Open. They perform a check on these services with TCP Fast Open. For example, there is one free HAProxy service for each node, and they use TCP Fast Open for things like that. It's flipped to the HAProxy, and then they establish a persistent connection. It's more of a hand-off, and then I can do all the magic. You can do most of the things I'm doing with HAProxy in F5 too. However, it's siloed off and takes a long time to get things done. I don't have any agility. I took that upon myself with HAProxy because it's a lot quicker to do it myself instead of waiting weeks for somebody else to do it.

The primary use case of HAProxy is for load balancing.
Our company used the solution as a proxy for Tanzu during an initial installation for conducting performance tests.
The primary use case of this solution is to control the IP addresses accessing our devices and and blocking invalid requests to our back end servers.
I use HAProxy for individuals who can not buy low balancers. I built NFV in a box and send individuals a pathway into an HAProxy VM.
We primarily use HAProxy for the load balancer.
For production purposes, we use HAProxy, which is a web application. Our primary use case is load balancing.
We use it in a model teacher, project, and financial trading system.
