Node.js idiomatic client for Cloud KMS.
Cloud KMS allows you to keep encryption keys in one central cloud service, for direct use by other cloud resources and applications. With Cloud KMS you are the ultimate custodian of your data, you can manage encryption in the cloud the same way you do on-premises, and you have a provable and monitorable root of trust over your data.

Versioning
This library follows Semantic Versioning.
This library is considered to be in beta. This means it is expected to be
mostly stable while we work toward a general availability release; however,
complete stability is not guaranteed. We will address issues and requests
against beta libraries with a high priority.
