They're actually occasionally reaching out to grab remote resources hosted over https based upon the incoming tuple. The remote resource they are reaching out to requires client authentication as well, so the certificate has to be signed by a specific CA. Currently I'm just using a set of self-signed certs and a self-signed common root CA.

True, there are two other use cases that users commonly have:


YCAv2: Users go through a common proxy, since these certificates are also 
host-based.


Data Highway:  The DH servers query the storm registry server using yfor syntax 
for the list of hosts (storm spouts) that have registered to receive data.  SSL 
certificates are generated for each virtual host in the registry service.



What external service is being connected to in this case?
