I’m reading above that you weren’t aware of sealed-secrets. So I guess that you are not familiar with ExternalSecrets secrets neither. Very solid project

They probably should merge with https://github.com/external-secrets/kubernetes-external-secr...

I do not recommend vault if you are not experienced. It is a heavy infra to manage. I suggest looking into https://github.com/external-secrets/kubernetes-external-secrets and selecting the tool offered by your cloud providers.

This is where things like the vault agent sidecar or projects like external secrets come in and allow you to inject / sync your secrets backend and your Kubernetes workloads :)

Depending on what platform you are on, you could use the AWS SDK or a tool like external-secrets (for Kubernetes).

We don't keep anything sensitive inside of Helm charts. We use AWS Secrets Manager and external-secrets

Which helm Chart do you use? You should probably use this one https://github.com/grafana/helm-charts/tree/main/charts/loki-distributed

We were able to keep this config in Grafana UI but if the pod (K8S) is fail the details is deleted, we are using latest prom helm .

Grafana Labs in its Helm repository provides chart that can install Loki stack also with other complementary tools like Logstash or Prometheus.

Once you have this ready for your cluster install Grafana from Grafana helm chart from here

grafana/helm-charts/blob/main/charts/loki-stack/Chart.yaml

Using the helm chart values from values.yaml here https://github.com/grafana/helm-charts/blob/main/charts/grafana/values.yaml

Hey everyone! This is probably an easy question for those of you with experience. I’m using helm to install loki-stack and cannot figure out how to enable the query frontend with the Helm chart.
