Securing MySQL over SSL [on hold]

During the last couple of months we built a small business environment. We're running a MySQL database on a provider who's not offering MySQL over SSL. As it turns out, it's quite difficult to find a provider. Here come my two questions:

1. Can you recommend a good provider to host our database with SSL support?
2. Do you have any hardware recommendations for hosting it ourselves? As mentioned, we're a small business, basically 3 people using the database to work on orders (~20 a day) with minor commits to the database. I thought about something Raspberry style but I'm concerned about performance. I'd appreciate any input on that matter.
