Hi Chris, I have the following question about installing and running es in production:

In this article, the following is mentioned:

"This tutorial assumes that your servers are using a VPN like the one described here: How To Use Ansible and Tinc VPN to Secure Your Server Infrastructure."

In this article however there is no mention of the need for a vpn and Tinc:

This is a bit confusing, is this vpn necessary for basic usage of elasticsearch or not, or private networking only? It seems like a lot of work to set this all up. Or is the approach in the second article sufficient? ( authentication + firewall)

Thanks
Thomas
