An example of how to setup ECS with HAProxy is detailed in the following sections. Although the different ways to deploy ECS with HAProxy described previously will not be fully covered in this white paper, it does provide a base in which the reader can enhance the deployment to implement further. In this example, information on how to configure HAProxy for load balancing object access and NFS access in a single deployment are described. For object access, “http mode” is used and for NFS “tcp mode” is used. Virtual machines running Mint version 17.1, an Ubuntu variant, was used as the server to host HAProxy. DNS installed on a Windows Server was used to map the HAProxy IP addresses to various names.
