we will use the "secret" approach. Since we use mod_jk which supports it, this will offer the least trouble when deploying in customer environments. We will generate a random secret for each tomcat instance. Since our apps already register in our service registry,we can just add the secret there. Our Apache HTTPD resp. a little tooling we wrote for it that generates the Apache config from information in the registry and can pick up the secret from there as well.
