Stackable Secret Operator
Documentation | Stackable Data Platform | Platform Docs | Discussions | Discord
This is a Kubernetes Operator to provision and inject secrets for Kubernetes pods. Compared to Kubernetes' native secret mounts, this permits secrets to be selected dynamically based on properties of the Pod.
It is part of the Stackable Data Platform, a curated selection of the best open source data apps like Apache Kafka, Apache Druid, Trino or Apache Spark, all working together seamlessly. Based on Kubernetes, it runs everywhere – on prem or in the cloud.

You can install the operator using stackablectl or helm.

What does it do?
The Secret Operator provisions and mounts secrets, but unlike the default Kubernetes Secret mechanism, Secrets can be created and mounted dynamically based on Pod properties. The Operator supports:

How it works
