Amazon strives to be Earth's most customer-centric company where people can find and discover virtually anything they want to buy online. By giving customers more of what they want - low prices, vast selection, and convenience - Amazon continues to grow and evolve as a world-class e-commerce platform.

Founded by Jeff Bezos, the Amazon.com website started in 1995 as a place to buy books because of the unique customer experience the Web could offer book lovers. Bezos believed that only the Internet could offer customers the convenience of browsing a selection of millions of book titles in a single sitting. During the first 30 days of business, Amazon fulfilled orders for customers in 50 states and 45 countries - all shipped from his Seattle-area garage.

Amazon's evolution from Web site to e-commerce partner to development platform is driven by the spirit of innovation that is part of the company's DNA. The world's brightest technology minds come to Amazon.com to research and develop technology that improves the lives of shoppers and sellers around the world.

We have most of our infra on AWS, so naturally, AWS Secrets Manager plays a key role in managing the secrets.
Be it DB connection string, url, username, password, etc. all the little pieces that allow a service to connect to other services to do meaningful things, we store everything in AWS Secrets Manager.

Single source of truth for secrets
Securely share secrets with colleagues
Securely store secrets for services to access during runtime

The whole secret vs key-value naming could be confusing for beginner
The lack of history is quite inconvenient

The ability to securely store & share secrets greatly improves security posture
Services can be made to retrieve secrets externally at runtime
Can control secrets for different environments for different groups of people

[AWS Secrets Manager] is used for storing and managing who can access and use the secrets variables along with the project. The entire organization uses it. It solves the part that with a simple command before running the project all users (depending on their roles) can get the secrets in reading mode.

One trust source for all secrets
You can divide them per environment
You can give different access to users

It could be good if a user can use a variable in the project but can't see them in the manager on AWS

Assign variables per environment
Give permissions per user role
One trust source for all variables
