Yeah, need details on that. Maybe he's talking about having haproxy listen on many ips and ports, each one being a separate front end section and in the haproxy config with each mapped to its own default_backend.
Even if that is the case, the load balancer + listener woudl still make up one of those frontends so the mapping would still be correct. Though, maybe a different structure would make more sense if that is the case. Also, I've created a WIP review of the initial database structure: https://review.openstack.org/#/c/114671/ Added my own comments so everyone please look at that. Stephen, if you could comment on what German mentioned that'd be great.
