It suits IT and security administrators and developers who need to manage and rotate secrets used by applications or services. It is designed for teams working in AWS environments that need access controls, audit logs, or regional replication.
This service suits application and cloud teams that need centrally managed credentials instead of embedding them in source code or configuration files. It may also fit teams using automatic rotation or multi-region secret replication.
