Hi, Does anyone know of a way to keep connections alive on the server side irrespective of whether clients close them or not?
HAProxy keeps a connection alive to the server only if the corresponding client side connection is still up. So, essentially server side keepalive is only supported if client side keepalive is also there otherwise, haproxy closes the server side connection as soon as the client closes it. It'll be useful, in HTTP mode, to keep server side connections alive so that those can be used a firehouse pipes to the backend servers and requests can be round-robin over those kept alive connections accordingly. - Pradeep Jindal
