Abstract
A cache service provides applications in a containerized, multi-tenant cloud-computing system low-latency access to secrets. The cache service may operate as a cluster-level service or a sidecar service. The cache service may store copies of secrets (which are located in one or more absolute stores) in a cache storage. The cache service and the cache storage may be closer to the applications than the one or more absolute stores are to the applications. The cache service may aggregate secrets associated with multiple entities in a single cache storage. The cache service may support isolation between secrets such that secrets of a first entity are isolated from secrets of a second entity. The cache service may enforce granulated access controls such that it can apply different access controls to secrets of a first entity than to secrets of a second entity.
