StatefulSets provide stable network identifiers, ordinal deployment ordering, and dedicated persistent storage attachments per pod replica.

How does HashiCorp Vault integrate with Kubernetes?

Vault uses Kubernetes Service Account tokens to authenticate pods dynamically and inject secrets into pod memory without hardcoding secrets in manifests.
