In line with the question and answer in the below topic on Azure, are there recommendations and experiences with similar settings on AWS? We run Indicium on AWS Elastic Beanstalk.

How do we secure the username and password of the DB connection details in the appsettings.json not to be in plain text in AWS?

I don't have experience with AWS, but this looks a bit similar to the Azure configuration we use:

Thanks, hadn't seen that documentation yet. We'll give it a try!
