Merged idea
This idea has been merged into another idea. To comment or vote on this idea, please visit DPGWY-I-506 Support for the Automatic Certificate Management Environment (ACME) protocol.

ACME practices for cert maintenance. Merged

Certificate durations are now scheduled to drop to 47 days.

Our datapower gateways need to be able to interact with ACME-like services; it's getting ridiculous to have to custom-code around this.

ACME is perhaps best represented by the LetsEncrypt ecosystem:
