Biscuit vs Keywhiz: What are the differences?

Developers describe Biscuit as "A multi-region key value store for your AWS infrastructure secrets". Biscuit is a simple key-value store for your infrastructure secrets. Biscuit is most useful to teams already using AWS and IAM to manage their infrastructure. On the other hand, Keywhiz is detailed as "A system for distributing and managing secrets". Keywhiz is a secret management and distribution service that is now available for everyone. Keywhiz helps us with infrastructure secrets, including TLS certificates and keys, GPG keyrings, symmetric keys, database credentials, API tokens, and SSH keys for external services — and even some non-secrets like TLS trust stores. Automation with Keywhiz allows us to seamlessly distribute and generate the necessary secrets for our services, which provides a consistent and secure environment, and ultimately helps us ship faster.

Biscuit and Keywhiz can be primarily classified as "Secrets Management" tools.

Biscuit and Keywhiz are both open source tools. Keywhiz with 2.09K GitHub stars and 166 forks on GitHub appears to be more popular than Biscuit with 536 GitHub stars and 22 GitHub forks.
