<p>I'm trying to find a suitable vault to use for Kubernetes itself and apps that will run on containers. By far many resources point to Hashicorp vault. 
There exists a vault operator by CoreOS for that but it seems abandoned since April.</p>

<p>We run Kubernetes on AWS with EKS.</p>

<p>Any suggestions what would be possible choices to use? I'm interested a lot to see what are the top choices that are used the most today for this purpose.</p>

<p>Thank you!</p>

<p>The <a href="https://github.com/coreos/vault-operator" rel="nofollow noreferrer">CoreOS Vault operator</a> is beta as of this writing. I would not recommend using it in prod yet. There's also a <a href="https://github.com/Boostport/kubernetes-vault" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Bootsport Vault Operator</a> but doesn't seem to be prod ready either.</p>

<p>IMO, as of now, you are better off running standalone Vault Kubernetes <a href="https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/workloads/controllers/deployment/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Deployments</a> or a <a href="https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/workloads/controllers/statefulset/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">StatefulSet</a>. You can use something like <a href="https://github.com/drud/vault-consul-on-kube" rel="nofollow noreferrer">this</a> or <a href="https://github.com/raravena80/kubeconsulvaultoss" rel="nofollow noreferrer">this</a> to get yourself started. Note: still use it at your own risk.</p>
