Source IP Addresses, STunnel, Haproxy and Server Logs
When using proxies such as STunnel and HAProxy it’s easy to loose track of the client source IP address. This occurs for example when HAProxy is used in it’s default configuration to load balance a number of back-end web servers.

5 Reasons Your Help Desk Should Get in the SaaS Lane
Forrester recently announced the results of their third annual ITSM survey at Fusion 2013 , a conference for IT Service Management professionals. Summing up the experience there in a recent blog post , Forrester revealed that survey results showed that ITSM has largely maintained status quo through 2013 stating ‘no news…is news’. Not everything was status quo though! Forrester said that the MOST significant change highlighted in the survey was in regards to SaaS adoption by service desk teams. In their own words “2013 is the breakout year for SaaS. ” When asked how they plan to purchase management and automation software over the next two years, for the first time ”Delivered via SaaS” rather than “Classic perpetual license” was the most popular choice. “As most of you know, SaaS has been on a tear for a couple of years now – it’s neat to finally see that reflected in the data.” To us , this is hardly a surprise. Ever since we launched ServiceDesk Plus On-Demand , the fully SaaS version of ServiceDesk Plus in late 2010, we have seen an encouraging adoption rate that only seems to grow each day. As the report suggests, we saw many of our own customers move from their installed service desks to ServiceDesk Plus On-Demand in 2013. The On-Demand version of ServiceDesk Plus itself is the byproduct of ManageEngine’s extensive experience in the ITSM market and Zoho’s ( ManageEngine’s parent company).

Open Source Windows service for reporting server load back to HAProxy (load balancer feedback agent).
In general when you are load balancing a cluster you can evenly spread the connections through the cluster and you get pretty consistent and even load balancing. However with some applications such as RDS ( Microsoft Terminal Servers ), you can get very high load from just a few users doing heavy work. The solution to this is to use some kind of server load feedback agent
