We dive into the powerful synergy between External Secrets Operator (ESO) and Crossplane to efficiently manage and propagate secrets across your Kubernetes clusters, databases, and secrets managers. Learn how to securely and seamlessly integrate with cloud providers’ secret management systems using ESO, and see how to leverage Crossplane’s infrastructure as code capabilities to ensure your secrets are consistently deployed wherever they’re needed.
