Generate key and CSR in IBM Cloud

243 views Asked by At

For a custom application on IBM Cloud, I need to be able to generate private key and CSR in IBM Cloud. Is there a service in IBM Cloud which would allow me to generate a private key & CSR in service itself? I checked the certificate manager & key protect service but none of them provide such capability. I wouldn't want someone to manually generate the private key on his/her machine or an on-premise server and upload it to the cloud. Is there any way in IBM Cloud to accomplish this? Thanks for the help

You can order SSL certificates in IBM Cloud. See the SSL Certificate service which is part of the infrastructure offerings.

Working with Let's Encrypt it is also pretty simple to obtain and deploy certificates. Here is information on wildcard certificates with Kubernetes / container apps, wildcard certificates with Cloud Foundry apps, and how to generate and deploy a certificate for just a single app using a wrapper.
