/**
 * The purpose of this interface is to provide pluggable mechanism for creating custom JSSE and Netty SSLContext
 * objects. Please use the Cassandra configuration key {@code ssl_context_factory} as part of {@code
 * client_encryption_options}/{@code server_encryption_options} and provide a custom class-name implementing this
 * interface with parameters to be used to plugin a your own way to load the SSLContext.
 * 
 * Implementation of this interface must have a constructor with argument of type {@code Map} to allow
 * custom parameters, needed by the implementation, to be passed from the yaml configuration. Common SSL
 * configurations like {@code protocol, algorithm, cipher_suites, accepted_protocols, require_client_auth,
 * require_endpoint_verification, enabled, optional} will also be passed to that map by Cassanddra.
 * 

 * Since on top of Netty, Cassandra is internally using JSSE SSLContext also for certain use-cases- this interface
 * has methods for both.
 * 

 * Below is an example of how to configure a custom implementation with parameters
 * 
 * ssl_context_factory:
 *       class_name: org.apache.cassandra.security.YourSslContextFactoryImpl
 *       parameters:
 *         key1: "value1"
 *         key2: "value2"
 *         key3: "value3"
