Proposed Changes

This PR implements the provider configuration manager column enhancement and includes a significant architecture improvement to eliminate code duplication.

Core Features

  • ✅ Added manager column to provider_config table with composite unique constraint (provider_name + manager)
  • ✅ Database migration with backward compatibility (existingrecords default to 'local' manager)
  • ✅ Updated protobuf definitions to require manager field in API requests
  • ✅ Enhanced SQL queries and audit logging to support manager field

Key Benefits

  1. Multiple Instance Support: Create multiple provider configs with same name but different manager types
  2. No Code Duplication: Trust system is single source of truth for available managers
  3. Automatic Discovery: Well-known configuration endpoint automatically exposes registered trust key managers
  4. Premium Integration: Custom managers integrate seamlessly via existing WithTrustKeyManagerFactories pattern
  5. Backward Compatibility: Existing providers automatically assigned 'local' manager type

Technical Changes

  • Database: Added manager column with composite unique constraint
  • API: Manager field now required in CreateProviderConfig, optional in UpdateProviderConfig
  • Service: Validates against RegistrationParams.KeyManagerFactories instead of separate registry
  • Well-known Config: Dynamically populated from trust key manager factories
  • Tests: Updated to reflect new validation approach

Usage for Custom Managers

Premium builds can add custom managers using the existing
pattern:

  server.Start(
      server.WithTrustKeyManagerFactories(
          trust.NamedKeyManagerFactory{Name: "premium-hsm",
  Factory: hsmFactory},
          trust.NamedKeyManagerFactory{Name: "premium-vault",
  Factory: vaultFactory},
      ),
  )

Summary of Changes

Hello @strantalis, I'm Gemini Code Assist1! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed!

This pull request significantly enhances the key management service by introducing multi-instance support for key provider configurations. It achieves this by adding a new manager field to the provider_config entity, allowing for distinct configurations of the same provider type under different management contexts. This change includes comprehensive updates to the database schema, API definitions, and backend logic, ensuring robust validation and backward compatibility.

Highlights

  • Multi-Instance Key Provider Support: Introduced a manager column to the provider_config table, enabling multiple key provider configurations to share the same provider_name if they belong to different manager types. This supports diverse key management deployment scenarios.
  • Database Schema Evolution: A new migration script adds the manager column, defaults existing records to 'local' for backward compatibility, and establishes a composite unique constraint on (provider_name, manager).
  • API and Protocol Updates: The manager field has been integrated into CreateProviderConfig, GetProviderConfig, and UpdateProviderConfig requests and responses across protobuf definitions, gRPC documentation, and Go service implementations.
  • Manager Type Validation and Registration: A system for registering and validating manager types has been implemented. New CreateProviderConfig and UpdateProviderConfig requests now validate that the provided manager type is registered, preventing invalid configurations. Registered manager types are also exposed via the well-known configuration endpoint.

Code Review

This pull request introduces the manager column to the provider_config table, enabling multi-instance support for provider configurations. The changes are well-integrated across the database, service logic, and API definitions. However, there are potential issues with the database migration rollback and a breaking change in the public API that need to be addressed.

Should we perhaps add a ListProviderConfig* operation for this, instead of making this return a value or not?

- [ ] I have added or updated integration tests (if appropriate)
- [ ] I have added or updated documentation

### Testing Instructions
multi-instance support

- Add `manager` column to provider_config table with composite
  unique constraint
- Implement manager type registration system with default types
  (local, aws, gcp, azure, hashicorp-vault, hsm)
- Update API to require manager field in CreateProviderConfig
  requests
- Add manager validation to reject unregistered manager types
- Integrate manager registry with well-known configuration
  endpoint
- Ensure backward compatibility by defaulting existing records
  to 'local' manager
- Update all SQL queries and protobuf definitions to support
  manager field
- Add comprehensive test coverage for manager registry and
  validation logic

This enables multiple provider configurations with the same name
 but different manager types,
supporting diverse key management deployment scenarios while
maintaining API compatibility.
