Abstract
Techniques are disclosed to automate secure propagation of a configuration to a plurality of servers in a server cluster. For example, the techniques may include a method. The method may include receiving, at a first computing device, a first public key associated with a target computing device, the first computing device having an updated configuration. The method may further include encrypting, at the first computing device, the updated configuration using the first public key. The method may further include sending the encrypted configuration to the target computing device. The method may further include decrypting, at the target computing device, the encrypted configuration using a first private key associated with the target computing device, wherein the first public key and the first private key are a first keypair associated with the target computing device. The method may further include updating the target computing device with the updated configuration.
