HelloHippo is a Terraform shop, and we were quite excited to able to apply Terraform power to Vault configuration. In this talk, Andrey will share our journey - what went well and what not so well, what you should consider before you start. On top of that, we will look into topics how to incorporate security ops (ex. secret engine credentials rotation) and configuration as code approach. After attending this talk, you will have a good idea of where to start if you decide to move the Vault config to Terraform as well as what challenges are ahead.
