encryption-provider-operator

encryption-provider-operator is creating and updating encryption config for k8s secret encryption of secret in etcd

simplified process of key rotation

• trigger new keyrotation -> either via annotation or after some period
• new encryption config file is generated with old and new key, the new key on the first position
• install encryption config hasher on the cluster and calculate hashes
• operator waits until all nodes have the hash of the config that is equal to what it sees in the MC
• operator will recreate all secrets
• operator will update the encryption config and remove the old key the * last step is to roll all master nodes again but it's not required or watched by the controller
