# External-Secrets Operator vs. current SOPS setup

> Adoptiert aus [gitops#20](https://git.lab/axion1337.chat/axion1337.chat-gitops/-/issues/20) (2026-08-18, ADR-0019). Kommentare und Verlauf bleiben dort; kanonisch ist ab jetzt diese Datei.

Current SOPS+age encryption is working fine. Consider whether External-Secrets Operator (cloud-native secret sourcing, e.g. from a proper secrets manager) is worth the migration effort, or whether to just keep/improve the current SOPS rotation strategy.
