That is just one piece of overall software. So Eucalyptus is the AWS-compatible private cloud and ELB is the implementation of AWS ELB on top of haproxy. To use it, you need to install Eucalyptus on 1 or multiple machines and haproxy will be running inside the VMs.
Depending on your use-case, it may be a good fit or over-kill. For example, applications should be running the VMs. If you have AWS experience and plan to run multiple loadbalancers, then you can give it a try. Eucalyptus covers 100% of ELB APIs, which covers life-cycle management, backend registration, SSL, etc. ------------------- Sang-Min Park – Software Engineer HP Enterprise From: Ed Young <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> Date: Tuesday, November 17, 2015 at 1:37 PM To: "[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>" <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> Subject: Re: haproxy management web service ? I'm aware of the stats application and have it configured to manually enable, disable and soft stop/start nodes. The UI is nice, but what I'm asking about is whether there is an web service or API to enable/disable/soft stop/start nodes programmatically. That way when I have a release or some other maintenance, I can do it all from Jenkins, for example. Eucalyptus? is this what you mean? https://github.com/eucalyptus/load-balancer-servo On Tue, Nov 17, 2015 at 1:47 PM, Park, Sang-Min <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: Fyi, Eucalyptus implements AWS ELB api using haproxy as its backend. ------------------- Sang-Min Park – Software Engineer HP Enterprise / Eucalyptus From: Ed Young <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]><mailto:[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>>> Date: Tuesday, November 17, 2015 at 12:10 PM To: "[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]><mailto:[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>>" <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]><mailto:[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>>> Subject: haproxy management web service ?
