AWS::ElasticLoadBalancing::LoadBalancer¶

Implements a HAProxy-bearing instance as a nested stack.

- cronie
- socat
- haproxy

Current default builtin template uses Fedora 21 x86_64 base cloud image (https://getfedora.org/cloud/download/) and apart from installing packages goes through some hoops around SELinux due to pecularities of heat-cfntools.
