ACME SSL Protocol

Due to the eventual announcement from Google for a 90-day ssl term, I would like to see a way to employ the ACME protocol for cert renewal. I've used POSH-ACME for other Windows-Tomcat environments successfully. We do have our environment load-balanced but we also apply SSL to the individual servers as well.

I second this request the ACME protocol is used with other products to integrate Lets Encrypt, we are moving all our certificate requests to Lets Encrypt starting early 2026. other solutions you might consider is certbot
