SSL support for XDCR to ES plugin

Couchbase Server
1

We are using Couchbase ES plugin. However connections are currently not encrypted.
Can you update if plugin supports connection over SSL ? If not , is there a plan in future to support that.

Hi A.

Connection over SSL isn’t supported right now. People generally put the ES nodes and the Couchbase nodes in the same security zone. To do SSL to Elasticsearch, the connector would need to be re-written to DCP or XDCR v2 (right now, it’s based on XDCR v1). Right now there’s no date for that work.

Best,

Thanks Will. It would be great if you can share some info on plugin’s future development and maintenance plan.
I do see an issue raised for this under https://issues.couchbase.com/browse/CBES-36
