Hi, I noticed SSL/TLS connection to a mariadb doesn’t seem to be supported. Would it be possible to allow opennebula to connect to the DB using encryption?

Thank you.

Hello @j-s.frerot,

Thanks for raising this issue around security, it’s definitely something worth exploring further.  
I’ve commented this with the team, and they asked if you could open an issue on our repo:  
[ONE Requests](https://github.com/OpenNebula/one/issues/)

Let me know once you file the issue to do a follow-up.

Cheers,
