I am amazed how deep you are going in your explanation, As a professional I always check different resource, read and view online resources to get the full picture but you my friend had the power to put all that effort in one video and it was super clear. 2 thumbs up and hat off.
Just wanted to say John, thank you for all the effort you put in your videos. I've started my cloud journey as junior engineer some years ago and used your videos as learning materials for both exams and best practices for implementation. Now I'm Cloud Security Architect and I have never stopped watching your videos. Thank you!
I know this is an older video but I was just asked to look at Azure Key Vault as a replacement for some on-premises solutions. This video helped immensely. Your videos are just stellar.
Agreed with others, I love how you don't just list key points but I get value out of how they are all connected. Your visual notes are very solid. I watch your videos a few times. Once to hear it without distraction, once to take notes, and then I'm able to pull it all together for real learning. Absolutely Brilliant!
stumbled on your channel early last year and passed Azure exams 900, 500, 104, 303 and 304 by the end of 2021 - thanks to you.....keep up the excellent work... thanks and regards
John, you are absolutely my go-to person on Azure. You are a great teacher. Coming from AWS I have found your resources invaluable. Thank you and keep up the fantastic work. You truly are the hardest worker in the room ;-)
What a legend finally understood Key Vault. Everyone has this complicated idea of explaining using powershell the basic concepts however Savill you explained in simple terms and using the Azure console. Great job once again champ
every single time before I deploy something in Azure I make sure to see if you have a video about the topic since in an hours time with one of your Video saves me countless hours reading other blogs online
Thanks for this great content. You are criminally under-subscribed. I'm working on AZ-500 with some coworkers and I've recommended they watch your vids.
Amazing timing, I'm studying for AZ-500 and was hoping John Savill does a video on AKV :) Appreciate the very clear and detailed review in each of your videos. thank you!
Thank you for all the effort you put into this and your other videos. It's helping me grow my azure knowledge and by extension my career immensely! :) Really appreciate it.
Excellent video! At 34:31, found that interesting. Its the exact thing I have been struggling with. I have a Spring Boot App which is deployed into an AZ App Service. We use AAD OpenId connect to authenticate etc... but when developing and testing on localhost, I store client id, tenant id and secret as standard Windows env variables. These are then picked up automatically by DefaultCredentialBuilders in code to authenticate to App Config and Key Vault. When deployed in AZ, I use a MSI on the app service, and the same DefaultCredentialBuilders pickup the MSI to authenticate to the same app config and key vault.
I like your explanations on most complex topics here. Especially the way you stitching the pieces one by one and giving a whole concept to us unconsciously. One little piece i like to understand the management plane and data plane access of key vault. what it is?
Great video, very informative as always :) The colors (saturation?) made the whiteboard a little hard to read this time? I can't remember noticing it before.
Hi John, it was a great explanation. I have been looking at keyvault and this video cleared some questions I had. I still have one particular question, that I could not find anywhere on the official documentation. Does AKV support key hierarchy? Say I have the BYOK approach where the customer key is at the very top of the hierarchy. And I want to use it to wrap other keys stored in key vault (say these keys would be on Level 2, I should have full control of them, and be protected by the root key). Is that possible?
Think of the control plane as things happening regarding the management of the Azure resource. Creating a resource, modifying a resource, deleting, i.e. ARM. The data plane is more about the functionality of the actual service and its specific interactions such as accessing data in a storage account, running a query against a database or getting secret from a key vault.
Hi, Regarding the key rotation, for encryption-related services, like Az Storage, what will it do with the existing data which were encrypted using the old key? And when the old key is deleted from the vault, how can it decrypt those data?
i'm afraid i didn't understood the idea of best practice "purge protection"=ON . If i would be an attacker with enough permissions i would not care about purge protection and instead would just delete the complete keyvault-RESOURCE? Do i miss something? thanks for insights. And yes, your videos are OUTSTANDING! Thanks you so match for that "give back" mindset!
ok, sure, i missed that comment on creation: "To enforce a mandatory retention period and prevent the permanent deletion of key vaults or secrets prior to the retention period elapsing, you can turn on purge protection." -->makes sense that delete of resource is blocked when purge protection is activated ;)
Thanks a lot John for such a nice and informative video on key vault. It is very helpful . Can you please let me know regarding my below question . "Normally in actual web applications we need to keep various environments for testing our app. like DEV,QA ,UAT and Prod. SO my question is what will be recommended solution if I want to use KeyValut for storing secrets and app settings with AppService. Is it recommended to have separate Key Vault for each environment like KeyVault for DEV,KeyVault for QA, KeyVault for UAT or KeyVault for PROD, OR Is it fine to user different versions of secrets per environment?"
Thanks a lot John for reply. So do mean as a best practice it is common to keep key vaults per environment and on top of that go for rbac mode instead of access policy to get more flexibility? Please advise.

Awesome job, congrats! ☁️🤙💪
I like how this video is full of "key points" :) Thank you for all these videos, I'm learning a lot of very useful information from them.
Lol
Its second time I try to understand something from Azure and I find perfect explanation in your videos! Thanks for all good work!:)
Happy to help!
John, you are absolutely my go-to person on Azure. You are a great teacher. Coming from AWS I have found your resources invaluable. Thank you and keep up the fantastic work. You truly are the hardest worker in the room ;-)
Thank you! 💪🤙
I needed a refresher on KV - and where best to look but here - Again great work john, appreciate the effort.
Much appreciated!
So good I watched it twice. Sitting AZ-500 (again!) tomorrow, thank you John, you are a legend!
Good luck

Hehe very kind.
Quite awesome! Keep it on. You help many admins, engineers and architects with such great videos.
Greetings from Germany :)
Thanks, will do!
I am just setting up key vaults in our environments and this helped me a lot. So much information densely packed into roughly an hour. Superb content!
Glad it was helpful!
Azure Key Vault is now easy for me. Thank you John for explaining it nicely.
Glad to help!
Excellent video. Would zoom in for us folks watching on the cell phone
Glad the world has you. Fabulous work.
Nicely done. I was trying to get a sense of the features and limitations of AKV and this really did the trick.
very welcome

i can't believe this training is for free.. thank you so much, super clear and helpful.
Great to hear. Have a great day
Great overview. Thanks John your videos are always super helpful.
Awesome stuff John. Really helped to get a deep understanding of Key Vault. Thanks :)
Thanks John, very well explained! I have a much better understanding on KV now :) Appreciate all the time & effort that goes into these videos.
Great video. You make a complicated concept easy to understand. Thanks!
You're welcome!
I really like your explanation and visual representation. Thank you
You're very welcome!
Fantastic video John! Thanks for putting in such effort in producing the video. It's evident that you plan the sections of the video :)
Braincells++ !
Thank you!
Fantastic as always, John, 😎🏃♂👊

Awesome material! Thank you
My pleasure
Awesome video as always, John. Would love to see a video on the new Verifiable Credentials service.
Super informative video. Thank you for all the effort you put in for making these videos 🙏
You are very welcome.
thanks a lot for great video with clear explanation!
Really great video to get the indepth of key vault. We will not somuch insights when we are raing paid course. Thanks for illumating others also 👋🙏
Very welcome 🤙
Excellent video, your content is gold - thank you.
Very welcome
Yet again, great stuff!
Great videos! Really like your training, so detailed!
Thanks a lot.. I watched many other videos but you make it clear .. you are good in this..
Thanks!
Very detailed, great content
very nice explanation !
Excellent as usual !!!
Glad you like it!
I like your explanations on most complex topics here. Especially the way you stitching the pieces one by one and giving a whole concept to us unconsciously. One little piece i like to understand the management plane and data plane access of key vault. what it is?
Control plane is arm interactions . Data plane are key vault api accessing content. I have other videos where I talk about arm and governance
Great video, very informative as always :) The colors (saturation?) made the whiteboard a little hard to read this time? I can't remember noticing it before.
I think my black t shirt messed stuff up :)
Hi John, it was a great explanation. I have been looking at keyvault and this video cleared some questions I had.

And I want to use it to wrap other keys stored in key vault (say these keys would be on Level 2, I should have full control of them, and be protected by the root key). Is that possible?
It is not a traditional CA which is what I think you want.
this is super deep
Awesome as always :)
Thank you
That was great, thank you
Glad you enjoyed it!
hey ! Really awesome content ! Very well explained ! Regards my friend!
Thank you! Cheers!
Hi John, could you elaborate more on data plane. I see it come up a lot but I never fully understand what encompasses the data plane.
Think of the control plane as things happening regarding the management of the Azure resource. Creating a resource, modifying a resource, deleting, i.e. ARM. The data plane is more about the functionality of the actual service and its specific interactions such as accessing data in a storage account, running a query against a database or getting secret from a key vault.
Thanks so much.. this is like outstanding..
Loved it!
Super helpful!
Glad you think so!
can be pretty short
Awesome. thank you
Thank you!
You're welcome!
Great great video. Can you use one or the same key vault across multiple subscriptions?
Depends on service and use case
@@NTFAQGuy is this documented anywhere on Microsoft's site?
Great video!
Thanks!
Complete package !!!! anything on ARM template and Parameters ?
have many videos about those things on the channel.
It may be a silly question, but how do you run PowerShell scripts line by line?
Thank you John for the great work!
press F8.
It is real deep dive
Hi,
Regarding the key rotation, for encryption-related services, like Az Storage, what will it do with the existing data which were encrypted using the old key?
And when the old key is deleted from the vault, how can it decrypt those data?
watch my video on storage encryption. data is not encrypted directly with these keys.
So you cant store the private key component of cert in a hsm, eg a root certificate of a CA?
Correct certs are software protected.
Would you consider that appropriate for certificate signing operations or is AKV not the right tool for the job?
@@petervanoosterom2794 I don’t think as key vault as a CA which is what I think you want. Could you custom build a solution on it, I guess.
Great
Does KMK need its own subscription? Or can it go in prod sub etc?
Key vault does not have to be in own sub
i'm afraid i didn't understood the idea of best practice "purge protection"=ON . If i would be an attacker with enough permissions i would not care about purge protection and instead would just delete the complete keyvault-RESOURCE? Do i miss something? thanks for insights. And yes, your videos are OUTSTANDING! Thanks you so match for that "give back" mindset!
ok, sure, i missed that comment on creation: "To enforce a mandatory retention period and prevent the permanent deletion of key vaults or secrets prior to the retention period elapsing, you can turn on purge protection." -->makes sense that delete of resource is blocked when purge protection is activated ;)
soft delete and purge protect works if the whole vault is deleted as well.
Thanks a lot John for such a nice and informative video on key vault. It is very helpful . Can you please let me know regarding my below question .

Common to have key vault per environment but with rbac mode you have more flexibility
Thanks a lot John for reply. So do mean as a best practice it is common to keep key vaults per environment and on top of that go for rbac mode instead of access policy to get more flexibility? Please advise.
