RTL's Journey to Kubernetes with HAProxy
In 2018, we migrated several video-on-demand/replay platforms from on-premise to the AWS cloud. HAProxy was the key to this migration, allowing us to move safely and without any downtime. We'll take a deep dive through the configuration used to secure our migration, highlighting aspects such as our use of the "observe layer7" keyword. I'll also cover how we use GOReplay to replicate traffic and our use of the HAProxy Ingress Controller in front of our Kubernetes clusters.
