Smarter Secret
Overview
Smarter Secret is a standard credentials vault, seamlessly integrated with every other Smarter resource that relies on sensitive information for authentication and connectivity. Secrets can be shared across teams and referenced by dependent resources without ever exposing the underlying value, and, like any other Smarter resource, a Secret is defined and managed through a standard SAM manifest.
Smarter Secret: a Django ORM-based secure store
for sensitive information such as SQL connection strings and API keys. Secrets
are consumed by other Smarter resources to supply the authentication credentials
those resources need to reach remote services.
