Secret backends¶
This is a summary of all Apache Airflow Community provided implementations of secret backends exposed via community-managed providers.
Airflow has the capability of reading connections, variables and configuration from Secret Backends rather than from its own Database. While storing such information in Airflow’s database is possible, many of the enterprise customers already have some secret managers storing secrets, and Airflow can tap into those via providers that implement secrets backends for services Airflow integrates with.
