Kubernetes secrets management with HCP Vault Secrets

The text discusses how to use the Vault Secrets Operator (VSO) to retrieve dynamic secrets from HashiCorp Cloud Platform (HCP) Vault Secrets and write them to a Kubernetes Secret for other workloads and resources to reference. It explains that HCP Vault Secrets enables users to manage the lifecycle of credentials and track their usage, while minimizing the need to refactor applications to access a secrets manager directly by using native Kubernetes Secrets. The text also provides an example configuration using HashiCorp Terraform to store GitHub App's private key, application identifier, and application installation identifier in HCP Vault Secrets, as well as instructions on installing the Vault Secrets Operator and defining resources for synchronizing secrets from HCP Vault Secrets to Kubernetes.
