60 minutes
Dynamic and Rotated Secrets with Akeyless - Platform Engineering Hands-On Lab Icon

Lab Overview

In this lab you will learn how to configure Akeyless dynamic and rotated secrets for AWS IAM credentials and MySQL databases. Dynamic secrets generate short-lived, on-demand credentials that are automatically revoked after their TTL expires. Rotated secrets periodically replace long-lived credentials with fresh ones. You will also deploy an Akeyless Gateway using Docker and connect it to your Akeyless account.

What You'll Learn

Deploy the Akeyless Gateway using Docker

Create an AWS target and configure rotated IAM credentials

Trigger manual secret rotation and observe credential changes

Create an AWS dynamic secret producer with scoped IAM permissions

Create a MySQL dynamic secret producer and fetch short-lived database credentials

Prerequisites

Akeyless account with API Key access credentials

Basic familiarity with AWS IAM concepts

Basic command-line experience
