Thank you Sean and Preston! I will look into client certificate verification as the Riak server will be on EC/2 but our application server is still Heroku. I saw over at 37 signals that they had some cookbooks for chef that used ec/2 and a bunch of others. I am wondering If I can modify their cookbooks to deploy Riak (maybe the EC-2 one)
