Hi, folks. I need a static IP for my app to integrate it with an external service. They have this requirement in order to filter the server IP and trust the source of the requests. I've read Heroku has 3 public IPs, but they are shared, so, if we restrict the requests coming from these addresses it would work, but the exchanged information could be sniffed and reused from another Heroku app, as they would have the same IP... So, can I have an unique static IP for my heroku webapp?
Another possibility could be to install a client certificate, encrypting the requests to the external service. Here, two questions: Do I need to install something special in the heroku server or copying the file is enough to use it with the webapp? And finally: Which ruby library would you recommend to consume external services? httparty, wrest, nestful, em-http-request, rest-client...? Thanks a lot in advance.
