Why this program matters

  • Without HAProxy, your servers suffer critical overloads, leading to 40% downtime during traffic peaks according to Gartner studies, revenue losses estimated at 5000€/h for an average e-commerce site, frustrated customers due to 5s+ latencies resulting in 25% cart abandonment, overwhelmed IT teams by recurrent manual failures, and competitors who scale effortlessly.

  • Imagine a Black Friday where a single server crashes: revenues evaporated, reputation tarnished.

  • With this training, avoid these pitfalls, deploy reliable balancing, and sleep easy during unexpected peaks.

HAProxy training objectives

  • Install HAProxy on a Linux server in 30 minutes
  • Configure frontends and backends for load balancing
  • Implement ACLs to secure incoming traffic
  • Monitor performance in real-time with stats
  • Deploy a HAProxy configuration in a simulated production environment
  • Diagnose and resolve common failures

HAProxy curriculum: 4 modules over 4 days

Module 1 : HAProxy Introduction: Installation and First Configuration (Linux tools, practical exercises, basic config file)

Discover HAProxy by installing the software on a dedicated Linux VM, configure your first HTTP frontend with a guided exercise on a fictional website, test load balancing on two simulated backends, generate your first functional haproxy.cfg file and validate it live, while laying the foundations to scale your apps without downtime.

Module 2 : Advanced HAProxy Configuration: Frontends/Backends and Balancing Modes (proxy rules, HTTP/HTTPS cases)

Dive into round-robin and leastconn modes through practical workshops, create multi-server backends with automated health checks, secure HTTPS with self-signed SSL certificates on real web app cases, optimize timeouts to avoid slowdowns, and deploy a robust config tested under simulated load conditions.

Module 3 : Security and ACLs in HAProxy: Intelligent Filtering and Redirections (conditional rules, logs)

Master Access Control Lists to block malicious IPs during a simulated DDoS attack exercise, implement redirections based on URL and headers, enable detailed logs to trace traffic, configure sticky sessions for persistent users, and strengthen your proxy against common vulnerabilities with interactive live tests.

Module 4 : HAProxy Monitoring and Deployment: Stats, Alerts, and Production (Prometheus tools, restart scripts)

Install the HAProxy stats dashboard to visualize metrics in real-time, integrate email alerts for server overload during a stress test exercise, deploy in high availability with Keepalived, generate basic Ansible automation scripts, and finalize with a deliverable capstone project to boost your infrastructure tomorrow.

Our method

How Learni guarantees the quality of your HAProxy training

Before, during, after: we frame the brief, introduce the trainer, tailor the content and measure impact. You stay in control from kickoff to wrap-up.

Step 1

Rigorous trainer selection

Each trainer is validated on three criteria: hands-on field expertise, proven pedagogy and alignment with your industry.

  • Triple validation: technical, pedagogical, sectoral.
  • Minimum rating 4.8/5 over the last 12 sessions.
Step 2

You meet the trainer beforehand

30-minute video call between you and the selected trainer to validate the fit, adjust content and clear any final doubts.

  • Live briefing on goals and team context.
  • Veto right — we swap the trainer for free if needed.
Step 3

Content tailored to your context

No recycled slides. The syllabus is reworked from your real cases: tools, constraints, vocabulary, ongoing projects.

  • Hands-on cases drawn from your stack and projects.
  • Program co-written then validated by your team.
Step 4

Continuous quality follow-up

Live evaluations, 30/90/180-day check-ins and a consolidation plan. If the impact misses the mark, we rework it.

  • NPS, knowledge quizzes and skills self-assessment.
  • Satisfaction guarantee: fully satisfied or free rework.

A simple promise: you don't pay to discover the trainer on day one. Everything is validated upfront, by you.
