Fri, 5th Jul 2024

HAProxy Technologies has achieved a significant milestone by being named a leader in 18 categories in the G2 Summer 2024 Grid Reports. This achievement not only acknowledges their longstanding dominance in Load Balancing and Container Networking but also recognises their expanding leadership in API Management, DDoS Protection, DevOps, Web Application Firewall (WAF), and Web Security.

The company's leading position is supported by an exceptional Satisfaction Score of 98 and numerous badges, including Best Results, Best Relationship, and Best Usability. These accolades are derived from customer and user reviews and data aggregated from online sources. G2 product ratings are based on several factors such as customer satisfaction with product attributes, popularity, and the statistical significance of reviews. In the Momentum Grid Report, these factors collectively impact the Satisfaction Score.

Dujko Radovnikovic, CEO of HAProxy Technologies, stated, “Our leadership across numerous new G2 categories clearly demonstrates our innovation in security and automation. HAProxy has long been the undisputed top-ranked load balancer, renowned for its exceptional performance, reliability, and flexibility. Today, it's undeniable that our platform provides a complete high-performance solution to the complex and diverse challenges of modern app delivery.”

The company is also prominently featured in 13 reports in the Enterprise market segment, showcasing its increasing trust among leading companies and cloud providers. HAProxy's reputation is bolstered by commendations from users. One enterprise user gave HAProxy five stars, describing it as “Blazing fast! Security you can take to the bank!” Another five-star review from an Infrastructure and Security Manager praised HAProxy for “scaling out capacity for our applications to simplifying disaster recovery operations.” A Systems Engineer also gave it five stars, noting its ease of setup and versatility, and remarked, “It does the job [of] multiple applications.”

The company's leadership in API Management, DDoS Protection, DevOps, WAF, and Web Security categories solidifies its position as a key provider of security and automation solutions for applications and APIs. Key milestones have facilitated HAProxy Technologies' expansion into these critical markets. Notably, in May 2024, HAProxy Enterprise 2.9 was released, introducing next-generation WAF and bot management capabilities aimed at enhancing security, performance, and management simplicity. Additionally, during the RSA Conference 2024, the company showcased these security features in various sessions.

In terms of automation capabilities, HAProxy Fusion 1.2 was released in November 2023, incorporating Service Discovery for Kubernetes and Consul. This integration allows HAProxy Enterprise to dynamically update service configurations, enabling automated external load balancing for on-premises Kubernetes and multi-cluster routing for Kubernetes in public clouds. HAProxy Technologies presented these automation features at AWS re:Invent 2023, highlighting solutions for challenges such as increasing costs and latency issues associated with high-scale load balancing on AWS.

The company also participated in the France API 2024 event, demonstrating its API gateway and AI/ML gateway solutions, and the capability to automate HAProxy infrastructure using HAProxy Fusion’s centralised API.

HAProxy Technologies will attend Black Hat USA 2024 in Las Vegas, Nevada, to showcase their latest security and automation capabilities.
