Is there a plan to support SSL connection?

[hjianhao]

For production usage, we need to connect redis with SSL connection, but seems like vert.x's redis client not supporting this feature?

Redis does not support SSL see: http://redis.io/topics/security

It clearly states the server should be running in a trusted network and not publicly on the internet.

@pmlopes : redis added tls support:
https://redis.io/topics/encryption
redis/redis#4855

...are there plans (or something already in the works) for supporting this in the client?

[pmlopes]

This is supported at least on master as the underlying socket can be configured to use TLS, or when using a connection string using the official protocol: rediss://server, note the double s.
