Best and secure architecture to publish Ria Services?

09-24-2009 6:38 AM |

Hi, what is the best and secure architecture (without using SSL) to publish Ria Services for Silverlight on the internet? Normally I would put my db server internally behind a proxy server and my web services in a DMZ, but using the LinqToEntitiesDomainService the web server needs direct connection to the db server. Is it a good solution to put the Ria Services internally and use a reverse proxy form the Silverlight client to the services? Do I need to set up the Ria Services differently then? I read Brad's post, but I don't want to add an additional WCF tier. Thanks!

I am not a security specialist, but that sounds like a good plan to me.
