Sorry to hear that you opted not to use Barbican.

I think it's only because Keycloak integration is required by Nokia's
system and Barbican doesn't support it.


But, I'm confused what oslo.versionedobjects has to do with secrets
storage. Could you explain?

Oslo.versionedobjects just defines a structure of artifact type. But we
also implemented two new field types for oslo_vo - Blob and Folder, which
can be used similar to Integer or String.

When user tries to write data to a Blob field it is automatically decoded
and uploaded to a cloud store by glance_store library. And vice versa -
when user reads data from the Blob field it is dowloaded from the store and
decoded.

So, consider Glare as a synergy of glance_store and oslo.versionedobjects
with RESTful API above it.



Best,
