[New repo]: Software Security Module serverless micro-service delivered via GitOps

[deltapip]

Description

The Software Security Module (SSM) sample application is a simple micro-service that exposes a REST API with 3 resources: Version, Wrap, and Unwrap. The version resource allows users to obtain information about the micro-service. The wrap resource allows users to encrypt a payload. While the unwrap resource allows users to decrypt a payload. This application comes configured with components that enable developers to follow GitOps principles, e.g, the state of the application is always kept in a git repository and such repository is the application source of truth. The motivation of this sample application is to provide an option for Kubernetes Developers that love the GitOps principles but will like to move away from managing a Kubernetes Cluster.
