&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/pre&gt;
and boom your shell script or whatever was very easily using secrets.&lt;p&gt;The fact that Amazon systems bootstrapped EC2 instances meant they could easily enable this org-wide. The odin back-end then owned all the lifecycles around those secrets including what kinds of hosts they would go to, if&amp;#x2F;how they would rotate, etc etc. It has its annoyances including the fact you have to use http to localhost which can get saturated if you&amp;#x27;re not doing things right, but overall it really made secrets-management a non-issue.</text><parent_chain><item><author>whateveracct</author><text>This looks like an AWS equivalent of the Amazon-internal secret management tool called Odin.
