AWS Secrets Manager is Amazon's fully managed service for storing, rotating, and retrieving secrets such as database credentials and API keys. It is aimed at teams managing secrets within the AWS ecosystem and supports automatic rotation as a dynamic-secrets capability. The service carries an extensive compliance posture including SOC 2, ISO 27001, FedRAMP, HIPAA, and PCI-DSS. It is delivered as an AWS-native managed service, priced on usage rather than a flat monthly fee, and is not self-hostable. Tight integration with AWS makes it a natural fit for workloads already running on the platform.
