Automate all the things - Updating container secrets using CloudWatch Events + Lambda
Back in episode #94 of Mobycast, we showed how Amazon Elastic Container Service (or ECS) makes it easy to inject sensitive data into your containers.
However, ECS only injects secrets at container startup. It's up to you to ensure that the container is restarted if secrets are updated. But who wants to manually restart containers?
In this episode of Mobycast, Jon and Chris are back to provide an automated solution to this problem. We show you step-by-step how to leverage CloudWatch Events and Lambda to automatically update your container secrets. After listening, you'll be able to "automate all things". Well... at least for updating container secrets :-).
