Self-Service Vault in Kubernetes

Learn how to handle the Day 2 operations of Vault on Kubernetes.

HashiCorp Vault provides a lot of value in being able to securely distribute secrets in a declarative way, but in a microservices architecture, the ability to scale is key.

Being able to spin up a Vault cluster in Kubernetes is relatively simple, but day 2 operations can get complicated without the appropriate tools.

What You'll Learn

In this talk, Pato Arvizu will walk through the journey from Vault running on VMs outside of Kubernetes, to running a fully declarative Vault cluster in Kubernetes, and how he made it possible for service owners to add Vault configuration and secrets securely, with zero dependencies.
