The latest release of HashiCorp Vault, version 1.4, offers several exciting features and improvements, including the general availability of Integrated Storage, which was initially introduced as a Technical Preview feature in Vault 1.2. The new storage backend provides a more efficient and scalable way to store sensitive data, and a series of guides has been created to help users understand its usage and deployment practices. Additionally, the Transform Secrets Engine has been introduced in Vault Enterprise 1.4, allowing for more advanced encoding and decoding of secrets based on user-defined formats. The Disaster Recovery (DR) operation token enhancement also provides improved business continuity by making batch DR operations available. Furthermore, HashiCorp continues to expand its ecosystem with new integrations and features, including improvements to logging and alerting, as well as the addition of a Kubernetes Secrets Engine in Vault 1.11.
