Deploy and Host Bifrost on Railway
Bifrost is a lightweight Rust microservice for storing data securely using AES-256-GCM encryption. It provides a simple REST API for creating, retrieving, and deleting encrypted secrets, leveraging the Rust Ring cryptography library for robust security.
About Hosting Bifrost
Hosting Bifrost requires a PostgreSQL database for persistent storage and a few environment variables for configuration. The service automatically creates the required database schema on startup, making deployment straightforward. You'll need to generate a 32-character encryption key for AES-256-GCM and an API key for authenticating requests. Once deployed, Bifrost exposes a REST API on port 8080 that your applications can use to securely store and retrieve sensitive data.
Common Use Cases
- Securely storing API keys, tokens, and credentials for your applications
- Building a centralized secrets manager for microservices architecture
- Encrypting sensitive configuration data at rest with easy retrieval
Dependencies for Bifrost Hosting
- PostgreSQL database
- Environment variables:
API_KEY,ENCRYPTION_KEY(32 characters),DATABASE_URL
Deployment Dependencies
- PostgreSQL on Railway
- Bifrost GitHub Repository
- OpenAPI Specification for client SDK generation
Why Deploy Bifrost on Railway?
Railway is a singular platform to deploy your infrastructure stack. Railway will host your infrastructure so you don't have to deal with configuration, while allowing you to vertically and horizontally scale it.
By deploying Bifrost on Railway, you are one step closer to supporting a complete full-stack application with minimal burden. Host your servers, databases, AI agents, and more on Railway.
