Abstract
The present disclosure relates generally to managing security artifacts for a software application executing on a software stack. Techniques are described for defining a security configuration such that each layer of the software stack may be associated with one or more datastores, each datastore including one or more security artifacts for a particular layer. The security configuration may specify, for example, an order in which the various datastores are to be accessed when a request is received for a security artifact that is available from multiple datastores. Using the security configuration, access to security artifacts can be handled in connection with requests generated through a particular layer in the stack. A system managing the security artifacts can provide a unified view of the datastores such that, from the end-user's perspective, there is only one logical datastore.
