Introduction

So HAProxy is primalery a load balancer an proxy for TCP and HTTP. But it may act as a traffic regulator. It may also be used as a protection against DDoS and service abuse, by maintening a wide variety of statistics (IP, URL, cookie) and when abuse is happening, action as denying, redirecting to other backend may undertaken ([haproxy ddos config], [haproxy ddos])

# The script uses CFN to provision a Target Group in the app-dev ALB, and creates
# an instance behind that target group, after which it  attaches two host-header
# based rules to the HTTP/HTTPS listeners which target the newly created target group.
# After the stack is up, it installs the relevant Strigo app, ssc and job-worker builds
# on it for the relevant branch.

1.  Jenkins Plugin Manager CLI
The Jenkins Plugin Manager CLI (jenkins-plugin-manager) is officially recommended, modern, and robust:

 - Better dependency resolution.

 - Officially supported by Jenkins.

 - YAML-based plugin configuration.

1. What Is a Plugin in Jenkins?
A Jenkins plugin is a self-contained Java archive (.hpi or .jpi file) that extends Jenkins' core functionality. Plugins allow Jenkins to integrate with tools like Git, Docker, Maven, Slack, and even custom steps in your pipeline.
They’re the backbone of Jenkins’ flexibility — you can add build triggers, post-build actions, UI elements, pipeline steps, and more.

2. Where Are Plugins Stored?
Jenkins stores plugins in the following location on the controller (master) node:

$JENKINS_HOME/plugins/
Each plugin is stored as a .jpi or .hpi file.

CloudBees CI (the enterprise version of Jenkins) uses Configuration as Code (CasC) bundles to manage plugins in a scalable, automated, and version-controlled way. Here's a detailed breakdown of how plugin management works within CasC bundles:

A. What Is a CasC Bundle?
A CasC bundle is a structured collection of YAML files that define the configuration of a CloudBees CI instance — including plugins, security, jobs, RBAC, and more. These bundles can be stored in Git and applied automatically to controllers via the CloudBees Operations Center.

B. Plugin Management via CasC

1. plugins.yaml File
This file lists all plugins that should be installed on a controller. It supports both CAP (CloudBees Assurance Program) plugins and custom plugins.
