Replication Security

Hi All,


Does anyone know the protocol or security layer used by couchDB to replicate data? 
Is data being published from one database to the other over a security layer? or is it a simple http post?

Thanks,
Norberto

Hey Noberto,

it is plain http. but of course there is a multitude of ways to secure/encrypt http communication. ssl/tls aware proxies, ssh or vpn tunnels, you name it :)
