HAProxy Integration
HAProxy is free, open source software that provides a high availability load balancer and proxy server for TCP and HTTP-based applications that spreads requests across multiple servers. This integration installs and configures Telegraf to send HAProxy stats metrics into Tanzu Observability. Telegraf is a light-weight server process capable of collecting, processing, aggregating, and sending metrics to a Wavefront proxy.
In addition to setting up the metrics flow, this integration also installs a dashboard. For example, here’s screenshot of dashboard with metrics collected from the HAProxy stats page.
