Q

How are AWS KMS and AWS CloudHSM different?

A

With AWS KMS, you let Amazon handle the complexity of managing the keys (Amazon manages HSMs behind the scenes). KMS integrates seamlessly with other AWS services such as S3, EBS, RDS, etc. With CloudHSM, you operate the cloud-based HSMs yourself and you need to figure out use of the keys from any applications. CloudHSM offers way more control and accompanying overhead.
