<p><strong>External Secrets Operator</strong> is a Kubernetes operator that integrates external
secret management systems like <a href="https://aws.amazon.com/secrets-manager/">AWS Secrets
Manager</a>, <a href="https://www.vaultproject.io/">HashiCorp
Vault</a>, <a href="https://cloud.google.com/secret-manager">Google Secrets
Manager</a>, <a href="https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/services/key-vault/">Azure Key
Vault</a> and many more. The
operator reads information from external APIs and automatically injects the
values into a <a href="https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/configuration/secret/">Kubernetes
Secret</a>.</p>
<h3 id="what-is-the-goal-of-external-secrets-operator">What is the goal of External Secrets Operator?</h3>
<p>The goal of External Secrets Operator is to synchronize secrets from external
APIs into Kubernetes. ESO is a collection of custom API resources -
<code>ExternalSecret</code>, <code>SecretStore</code> and <code>ClusterSecretStore</code> that provide a
user-friendly abstraction for the external API that stores and manages the
lifecycle of the secrets for you.</p>
<h3 id="where-to-get-started">Where to get started</h3>
