Securing RabbitMQ with Vault

Learn how to configure a HashiCorp Vault server to help secure access to a RabbitMQ message queue.

As more software architects move their application designs towards microservice architecture and asynchronous event-driven workflows, the use of message queue systems is ever increasing. RabbitMQ is a popular choice of message queue system which is widely used globally.

Configuring applications to access such a message queue system without compromising its access credentials in the source code is a challenge that can be solved using Hashicorp Vault as a secrets management platform.

What You'll Learn

In this talk, Robert Barnes will look at how you can configure a HashiCorp Vault server to help secure access to a RabbitMQ instance and go through a live demo of refactoring a simple Go application to access RabbitMQ securely with the help of HashiCorp Vault.
