HashiCorp Waypoint is an application release orchestrator that simplifies how developers build, release, deploy, and monitor their applications in cloud environments. It allows developers to configure applications quickly and save time managing deployments. Waypoint can be used with static application configuration or dynamic configurations sourced from external sources using a config sourcer plugin. The HashiCorp Vault config sourcer plugin can source static values as well as dynamic secrets, allowing for enhanced security by setting secrets to expire after a set time-to-live (TTL). With Waypoint's app deployment workflow, developers can easily integrate dynamic configurations with Vault, regardless of the deployment target. By using Waypoint and HashiCorp Vault, developers can securely manage their application secrets and improve the overall security of their applications. The example application demonstrates how to source dynamic secrets from Vault in a Waypoint deployment, providing a secure way to access database credentials.
