⁠VMware Secrets Manager: keep your secrets… secret

⁠Quick Reference

• Maintained By: VSecM Maintainers⁠
• Where to Get Help: VSecM Community Slack⁠
• Documentation: VSecM Official Docs⁠

⁠How to Use the Images

VMware Secrets Manager images are fetched and used during VMware Secrets Manager deployment.

They are NOT intended to be used in an application’s FROM field.

See the VMware Secrets Manager Makefile for more details⁠.

⁠VMware Secrets Manager Workload Demo (using sidecar)

This is an image of a workload to test VMware Secrets Manager on a Kubernetes cluster.

In this particular case, we leverage VMware Secrets Manager Sidecar instead of directly talking to VMware Secrets Manager Safe.

VMware Secrets Manager Sidecar abstracts certain cross-cutting concerns and keeps the workload code agnostic about how VMware Secrets Manager works internally.

If you want finer-grained control, you can use VMware Secrets Manager Go SDK and directly access VMware Secrets Manager Safe.

Check out VMware Secrets Manager’s website⁠ for more information about the project, high-level design, contributing guidelines, and code of conduct.
