Thanks, your project looks useful

Here are some questions:

Are you using Strongbox in production?

The backup is mentioned, but how exactly do you backup?

Thanks

The project has been used in production since the summer of 2016. It is being used by a number of teams, and has been contributed to by more than 20 developers (there is a CONTRIBUTORS file).

The backup will take the data stored in DynamoDB (or a file) and serialize to an encrypted file. It will not backup the KMS key, or IAM policies. Hence, it is useful to take snapshots of your state, but not a full disaster recovery.

You can take a backup by a click of a button in the GUI, or using the cli: `strongbox group backup --group team.project --dst-path my-file.backup`
