    AWS Secrets Manager

    Secrets Managementsecrets

    AWS Secrets Manager is an AWS-managed secrets management service for storing, retrieving, and rotating database credentials, API keys, OAuth tokens, application credentials, and other sensitive values. It is designed for teams that want to remove hard-coded secrets from application code and replace them with runtime retrieval through AWS IAM-controlled access. Its core fit is AWS-centric environments, especially workloads that already use AWS KMS, Lambda, RDS, and other AWS services. It is best for organizations standardizing secret storage and rotation inside the AWS control plane rather than running a separate self-managed vault.
