Hi HLS seems to be based on standard HTTP requests, so although I don't know the details of the HLS protocol, I think HAProxy can do the Job.
You can use the diferent HAProxy timeouts to deal with long HTTP sessions and you can rely on any HTTP header, cookie, .. to route requests to the appropriate pool. ++ On 29/11/2017 08:09, Deon S wrote: > > Good day > > HAproxy looks like a very nice product.
