I guess in the model of #21, one could have 2-tier model, where app server run in one guest VLAN, and DB servers in another guest VLAN and then you can have a VM which is in both vlan's that is tuned to do the inter-vlan routing. Tenant will be in full control of the what traffic enters into the VLAN that has the DB servers running. I think there is nothing that conflicts with CloudStack knowledge in this model. This may be not a very automated/optimal but might work. CloudStack will have tiered app support in future release [1] which will be efficient.
