This PR introduces a new Key Provider to support Azure Key Vault as a Key Management System (KMS) for Encryption at Rest. The core design principle is the same as in the AWS and GCP key providers - an externally provided Vault key that is used to protect local data encryption keys (a process known as "key wrapping"). In more detail, this patch series consists of: * Multiple Azure credential sources, offering a variety of authentication options (Service Principals, Managed Identities, environment variables, Azure CLI). * The Azure host - the Key Vault endpoint bridge. * The Azure Key Provider - the interface for the Azure host. * Unit tests using real Azure resources (credentials and Vault keys). * Log filtering logic to not expose sensitive data in the logs (plaintext keys, credentials, access tokens). This is part of the overall effort to support Azure deployments. Testing done: * Unit tests. * Manual test on an Azure VM with a Managed Identity. * Manual test with credentials from Azure CLI. * Manual test of `--azure-hosts` cmdline option. * Manual test of log filtering. Remaining items: - [x] Create necessary Azure resources for CI. - [x] Merge pipeline changes (https://github.com/scylladb/scylla-pkg/pull/5201). Closes https://github.com/scylladb/scylla-enterprise/issues/1077. New feature. No backport is needed.

ScyllaDB Documentation
This repository contains the source files for ScyllaDB documentation.
- The
devfolder contains developer-oriented documentation related to the ScyllaDB code base. It is not published and is only available via GitHub. - All other folders and files contain user-oriented documentation related to ScyllaDB and are sources for docs.scylladb.com/manual.

Key Guidelines for Contributors
- The user documentation is written in reStructuredText (RST) - a plaintext markup language similar to Markdown. If you're not familiar with RST, see ScyllaDB RST Examples.
- The developer documentation is written in Markdown. See Basic Markdown Syntax for reference.
- Follow the ScyllaDB Style Guide.
To prevent the build from failing:
-
If you add a new file, ensure it's added to an appropriate toctree, for example:
.. toctree:: :maxdepth: 2 :hidden: Page X </folder1/article1> Page Y </folder1/article2> Your New Page </folder1/your-new-article> -
Make sure the link syntax is correct. See the guidelines on creating links
-
Make sure the section headings are correct. See the guidelines on creating headings Note that the markup must be at least as long as the text in the heading. For example:

Building User Documentation
Prerequisites
- Python
- poetry
- make
See the ScyllaDB Sphinx Theme prerequisites to check which versions of the above are currently required.
Mac OS X
You must have a working Homebrew in order to install the needed tools.
You also need the standard utility make.
Check if you have these two items with the following commands:
brew help
make -h
Linux Distributions
Building the user docs should work out of the box on most Linux distributions.
Windows
Use "Bash on Ubuntu on Windows" for the same tools and capabilities as on Linux distributions.
Building the Docs
- Run
make previewto build the documentation. - Preview the built documentation locally at http://127.0.0.1:5500/.
Cleanup
You can clean up all the build products and auto-installed Python stuff with:
make pristine
