Security Settings Between Amazon EC2 and Hero

Question

I am creating an instance of redis in ec2 which should have access to my heroku application. Are there certain inbound source IP ranges or security settings that I can set in Amazon ec2 security groups to only allow traffic from my heroku instances?

Answer 1

UPDATE: Heroku no longer publishes it to security groups, so this is no longer possible.

Answer 2

Heroku speakers can make any outgoing tcp connection anywhere.

Answer 3

I think this is what you want: https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/proximo

You can then use the AWS security groups.
