AWS can be used for stack-level secrets and environment variables.
AWS integration for the PHP stack
AWS fits into this stack through Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS), Simple Safe Storage (S3), Relational Database Service (RDS), Simple Email Service (SES), and Variable workflows. This page explains how it is actually used with the PHP stack, not just that the provider exists.
AWS S3 can receive backup archives from this stack.
AWS SES can act as the email delivery provider for SMTP-capable stack services.
AWS RDS can be used as the managed database target for external database services in this stack.
How AWS is used with this stack
The provider is useful only when it fits a concrete workflow in the stack. These are the roles it can play around the PHP stack.
Upload backup archives to external storage
AWS S3 can be used as a destination for backup archives created by backup-capable services in this stack.
Relay outbound email through this provider
AWS SES can be used by SMTP-capable services in the stack for reliable provider-backed email delivery.
Connect apps to managed databases
AWS RDS fits the managed database services in this stack, keeping app-side connection details with the stack while the database runs externally.
Pass environment variables and secrets into services
AWS can be attached to the stack as variables and secrets, then reused by services and environments without committing credentials into application code.
Environment variables added to connected services
Attach this provider at stack level, connect it to the services that need it, and Wodby will pass the configured variables and secrets into those containers. Values can still be overridden per environment when staging and production should differ.
