Clarify HPCS AWS & Azure support. #24

Closed mark-buckwell closed 3 years ago

mark-buckwell commented 3 years ago

Currently this question in the Q&A implies an AWS cloud service such as S3 Storage could use HPCS.

Can I use Hyper Protect Crypto Services along with other cloud provider services such as AWS and Azure? Yes. Any application can connect to Hyper Protect Crypto Services and use our APIs from anywhere on the internet.

I suggest replacing the Q&A with:

Can I use Hyper Protect Crypto Services for applications hosted in other cloud service providers such as AWS, Azure and GCP? Yes, An application hosted in other cloud service providers could call the public APIs for BYOK or PKCS#11 with an appropriate network connection.

@mark-buckwell Thanks for the feedback. I have updated the page per your suggestion, please check it out at: https://cloud.ibm.com/docs/hs-crypto?topic=hs-crypto-faq-provisioning-operations#faq-hpcs-other-cloud-vendor. As HPCS provides the KYOK feature, I changed BYOK to KYOK. If you have any further comments, please let me know. Thanks.
