Re: [Question #212119]: does carbon support ssl?

 

Question #212119 on Graphite changed:
https://answers.launchpad.net/graphite/+question/212119

    Status: Open => Answered

Brian Hatfield proposed the following answer:
I'm not sure if it's implemented in carbon currently, but carbon uses
Twisted for it's communication layer. Twisted has some form of SSL support,
which you can find here:
http://twistedmatrix.com/documents/current/core/howto/ssl.html

I'm not sure what the effort required to provide an SSL endpoint
cross-carbon is, but you'd also have to build up your sending daemons to
use SSL as well.

Not a bad idea at all, though you'd want to be weary of the connection
build-up penalties at scale; and maintain persistent connections to the
daemon where possible.
