Is using spiped viable for redis servers? Can all the servers that need to connect to the redis server all connect via spiped using the same secret key? Or do multiple connections mess things up? How many simultaneous incoming connections can one listener deal with?
- cperciva 10y agoI don't use redis, but I understand that lots of people use spiped with redis, yes. Each connection going through spiped is just another connection; spiped is intended to be a "drop in and change where you point your services at" way to make TCP connections secure. Re simultaneous connections: The current release is limited to 500, but the next release (a matter of weeks) will be able to handle an arbitrarily large number of connections. That said, it uses select/poll based non-blocking I/O, so performance may suffer if most of your connections are idle. (This hasn't been an issue for any spiped uses I'm aware of.)
