HAProxy can proxy HTTP/2 at Layer 4 or at Layer 7, to get all the HTTP message data and perform routing based on that, etc.

Thx. Yes, NGNIX will not be able to balance HTTP/2 traffic based on HTTP headers. But HAProxy 2.0 can.

In our case, we are not un-encrypting at the load balancer, so we cannot see the HTTP headers anyway. Instead we use NGINX to load-balance based on TCP-level info.
