This looks very interesting. Any comments on production-worthiness? This isn't your target scenario, but could it evolve into a component for using IAM-style credential management for companies running their own servers instead of using AWS? I'm always interested in new techniques for removing secret keys from server configs.

We've been running Hologram in production at AdRoll for about 2 months now with no issues, and we've eliminated permanent key usage entirely.
We've had a couple of requests internally for a server-oriented agent, and it's something we want to investigate eventually. I'll make a Github issue for it and at least we can have a conversation.
