How is security handled for this service?
Edit: I've contacted RedisToGo to ask them directly.
I don't want to be that guy making the pointlessly critical comment, but what is the use case for an in-memory database on the other side of an ethernet link? Even if you're in the same datacenter it's going to be slow, no? I get that startups need to move fast in order to validate ideas, but redis is hardly a chore to set up. Either way, congrats on the redundancy.

There are few projects building SSL into Redis https://github.com/tritondigital/ssl-redis; but nothing has been fully adopted by the community yet.
We offer a VPN, SSH and IP restrictions to bolster security. We currently only offer these to our larger plans, but can offer a custom solution depending on your requirements.

We've put in place the best practices advised by Salvatore. http://redis.io/topics/security . `In general, Redis is not optimized for maximum security but for maximum performance and simplicity.` There are few projects building SSL into Redis https://github.com/tritondigital/ssl-redis ; but nothing has been fully adopted by the community yet.
