Hi While eyaml is great for storing existing passwords or certificates in your hieradata, there are usually also password no one actually has to know (db passwords, etc.).
To automate this we use trocla ( https://github.com/duritong/trocla ) and it's hiera backend ( https://github.com/ZeroPointEnergy/hiera-backend-trocla ) to automatically generate this passwords on the puppetmaster when they are needed.
