Thread: PGPool encrypted connections from Application

Hi All,

Does PGPool allow encrypted connections from Application? i.e. ssl 
encrypted? My company wants to encrypt all traffic in the environment 
and so enabled https connections between applications/load balance. I am 
not sure about the PGPool. If application sends encrypted connection to 
PGPool will it accept?

Please advise.

Regards

Vikas

Yes, you can use encrypted connections with Pgpool-II. See FAQ:
https://pgpool.net/mediawiki/index.php/FAQ#How_can_I_set_up_SSL_for_pgpool-II.3F

and the manual:
http://www.pgpool.net/docs/latest/en/html/runtime-ssl.html

for more details.
