We would be happy to mention you here! @riddle writes about choosing ESO when comparing with Secret Store CSI Driver in their specific use case. They show us the relevant differences between the projects when looking at their scenario and requirements while integrating with ArgoCD. Puru writes about getting started using ESO with AWS Secrets Manager. He uses illustrations to explain ESO to new users and get's you to quickly start using ESO, as article is easy to follow along. Gustavo writes about how to setup ESO with Azure Key Vault and adds an guide on how to make it a bit more secure with OPA (Open Policy Agent). Gustavo writes about how to setup ESO with GCP Secret Manager. He also shows you how to make a simple multi tenant setup with a ClusterSecretStore. Gustavo writes about how to setup ESO with Hashicorp Vault. He also shows you how to make this scale with multiple replicas of the operator and leader election enabled to lead balance handling synchronization work. Gustavo writes about how to setup ESO with AWS Secrets Manager. He also shows you how to limit access and give granular permissions with better policies and roles for your service accounts to use. In this multi-articles series, Xavier writes about how to setup ESO with IBM Secrets Manager using the web user-interface. Xavier also shares how it is integrated into his pipeline scripts.
