summary
Demonstrates integrating HashiCorp Vault with Argo CD so Kubernetes apps deploy from Git without committing credentials, using KV v2 for versioned secrets and the Vault Agent Injector to inject rotated credentials at runtime. Shows a live Argo CD deployment where no database name or password is stored in Git, Vault handles rotation and reconciliation, and alternatives like the Argo Vault plugin or SecretStore CSI driver and Vault Config Operator are used when sidecars or declarative Vault config are required.
