Spire how to#

If you have any questions about how SPIRE works, or how to get it up and running, the best places to ask questions are the SPIFFE Slack channels. See the SPIRE Roadmap for a list of planned features and enhancements.Check ADOPTERS.md for a list of production SPIRE adopters, a view of the ecosystem, and use cases.There are several examples demonstrating SPIRE usage in the spire-examples and spire-tutorials repositories.Once ready to get started, see the Quickstart Guides for Kubernetes, Linux, and MacOS.Before trying SPIRE, it's a good idea to learn about its architecture and design goals.

Alternatively, you can build SPIRE from source.These releases contain both SPIRE Server and SPIRE Agent binaries. Pre-built releases of SPIRE can be found at.If you are an organization that wants to help shape the evolution of technologies that are container-packaged, dynamically-scheduled and microservices-oriented, consider joining the CNCF. SPIRE is hosted by the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF) as an incubation-level project. SPIRE can also enable workloads to securely authenticate to a secret store, a database, or a cloud provider service. This in turn allows two workloads to establish trust between each other, for example by establishing an mTLS connection or by signing and verifying a JWT token. SPIRE exposes the SPIFFE Workload API, which can attest running software systems and issue SPIFFE IDs and SVIDs to them. SPIRE (the SPIFFE Runtime Environment) is a toolchain of APIs for establishing trust between software systems across a wide variety of hosting platforms.
