[squid-users] Centralized Squid - design and implementation

[Alexander Samad]

Why haproxy instead of a pacemaker. I have 2 dmz boxes I setup in a
cluster. so I have 2 vips for the squid proxies. and dns setup to
round robin to the vip's.

I see sort of even distribution but I don't have a single point of
failure. if 1 node failes the vip moves over to the other node..
