something that you dont like about using AWS secrets Manager or think it should be handle differently? im researching around building a execution environment that handle the secret + actual execution, any input is appreciated |

If I need to store database passwords in secrets manager, I can just pass the ARN of the secret manager key in the connection string. I often don’t need to even do that and prefer to use the Data API to access Aurora Postgres/Mysql and that also uses the IAM permissions.
Even for access to EC2 instances I use an IAM controlled Session Manager proxy to access it over SSH/RDP.
But Secrets Manager just works. It’s a simple API/ClI command and the permission system to access it is very granular.
