Use the HAProxy Runtime API to update SSL certificates in HAProxy without a reload. When you route traffic through an HAProxy load balancer, you gain the ability to terminate SSL at the load balancer.

As our development cycles grow ever more dynamic, the need for automating repetitive tasks becomes all the more important.
When you see a notification on your smartphone, your brain processes the request quickly and determines how to react. It’s an efficient process and your nervous system is built for this use case. By contrast, most Internet-connected systems work in a less event-driven architecture. If there’s a change in one service, you won’t know about it until you check.
This is the second in my series on the cloud. I started writing about cloud visibility and in this article, we take a look at cloud costs. If we look at the evolution of computing over the past 30 or so years, it has always been about monumental shifts in technology, which drive further and further innovation, efficiencies and – seemingly – cost reduction.
