Interesting to see people recommending haproxy for ssl termination now. HAProxy has only supported that since June 2014. Before that, you saw people using projects like stud with it, and others recommending just using nginx in front.
True but if they were like me, they were using those as stop gaps until SSL landed in haproxy 1.5 stable. Yes, stable support arrived 'only' a year ago but that was after years of development work :) The first dev release with basic SSL support was back in September 2012.
