Secret Management simplified
Self Service: Add secrets confidently using a friendly UI, without GitOps access, or writing a single YAML config.
Eliminate Ticket Ops: DevOps teams no longer need to field endless requests, while still keeping control.
Automated set up and maintenance: no need to manage/upgrade ESO, SOPS, or other plug ins - ever again.
How it works
Secrets Management on AWS EKS
Without Kapstan
Managing secrets manually means:
- Tedious manual configuration of secrets in AWS Secrets Manager
- Writing YAML to inject secrets into Kubernetes clusters
- Coordinating with DevOps for access control
- Compliance risks without automated governance

Trusted by high growth startups in all stages
“Before Kapstan, managing secrets at Benny was a constant juggling act of manual processes and repetitive checks. Several times, my engineers improperly configured secrets, or forgot to update environment variables, bringing down production. These mistakes were silly and frustrating. Once we switched to Kapstan, it completely transformed our workflow. The developer UI to input secrets is dead simple. Secrets rotation is now automated, everything integrates cleanly with our existing infrastructure on AWS, and our team has far more confidence managing their own microservices. It’s been a game-changer.”

FAQs
What does the onboarding process to Kapstan look like?
The prerequisite to using Kapstan is to connect your container registry and cloud account. Once that is done, it takes a few clicks (and 30 minutes of waiting time) to create an environment with a well architected VPC and kubernetes cluster. Once that is done, you can see for yourself how easy it is to provision infrastructure resources (databases, queues, etc.) and create and deploy microservices.
How does migrating my existing infrastructure to Kapstan look like?
We provide white glove service (see here, for an example), and the process typically looks like this:
- Set up an EKS/GKE/AKS cluster in your staging account that replicates your company’s current infrastructure set up (this typically takes 2 hours)
- Configure all your applications via Kapstan UI (this typically takes two hours)
- Test out your infra+app set up in staging, and learn how to use Kapstan (3 days)
- When you feel comfortable, we’ll help you through a production cutover, and plan with you to ensure your workflow is not disrupted.
