Hello Jason, this is unrelated to the thread but since I have one of the MongoHQ founders here let me abuse a bit and ask:
I'm considering using mongo in the cloud but the problem I see is that there's no way to create a secure (encrypted) connection. Mongo doesn't support SSL and I can't create an SSH tunnel like against a server I control. I don't want my db data in the clear on Internet and I may not want to use AWS so that we're on the same 'network'.
I cannot be the first with this issue, is someone looking into adding encrypted connection to mongo? (I just see in mongo's site an open ticket about this) thanks!
