I need key management for a system I'm building. I need to encrypt documents per-role, and also sensitive fields in the DB per-role. I'm planning on using Amazon KMS for both these tasks (the document encryption is straightforward with KMS + S3, and for the row level security I'll probably implement something similar to [0])
Does anyone have any insight how Vault would compare for these tasks? Or if I'm going down the totally wrong road?

- manigandham 9y agoWhat you have is fine, all the major clouds have KMS systems that can be accessed securely using the built-in IAM roles which work great for encrypting data. Vault is overkill for what you need and would create more maintenance and operations overhead.
