AWS Elastic Beanstalk now supports retrieving secrets and configuration from AWS Secrets Manager and AWS Systems Manager

AWS Elastic Beanstalk now enables customers to reference AWS Systems Manager Parameter Store parameters and AWS Secrets Manager secrets in environment variables. This new integration provides developers with a native method for accessing data from these services in their application.

AWS Elastic Beanstalk is a service that provides the ability to deploy and manage applications in AWS without worrying about the infrastructure that runs those applications. With this integration, Elastic Beanstalk customers can now reference information stored in Secrets Manager and Parameter Store from their application. Developers can reference resources from these services directly in Elastic Beanstalk environment variables using Amazon Resource Names (ARNs), benefiting from automatic encryption at rest and in transit. This eliminates the need for application redeployment when configuration values change, simplifying operations and enhancing security.

This feature is available in all commercial AWS Regions where Elastic Beanstalk is available, including the AWS GovCloud (US) Regions.
