How production-ready is Fabio? It looks interesting but I can't tell how mature of a product it is

It's okay for our use case. Honestly, we were just wanting to get a load balancer up and working with consul, and we had grpc services and internal http apps to balance.

I'm not going to lie; it works and does failover correctly, quickly, and plays nice with consul. Not to mention, the name brings back memories...

If I had my way though, we would use HAProxy, but that's just because there is more options, ways to properly route, and more battle-tested.
