Hi guys,
I have been asked if it were possible for Haproxy to receive traffic
from servers for NFS over TCP, pass that traffic to a storage cluster
and then the cluster send the data directly to the servers. Sort of the
same method as LVS-DR would be.
So the flow would go something like this:
Server Pool ? Haproxy ? Storage Cluster VIP's
? ?
??????????????
I know that Willy has tested Haproxy to 10G through put but they don't
want Haproxy to become an I/O bottleneck as they scale their
application. Or if someone has a recommendation to use instead of
Haproxy or RR DNS for this sort of connections to the Storage Cluster I
would love to hear it. They enjoy Haproxy on the other applications
that they are using it for and it is working great.
Thanks
Joe
