- [Instance identity documents](https://smallstep.com/blog/embarrassingly-easy-certificates-on-aws-azure-gcp/) for VMs on AWS, GCP, and Azure
- [Single-use short-lived tokens](https://smallstep.com/docs/design-doc.html#jwk-provisioner) issued by your CD tool — Puppet, Chef, Ansible, Terraform, etc.
- Use an existing certificate from another CA (e.g., using a device certificate like [Twilio's Trust OnBoard](https://www.twilio.com/wireless/trust-onboard)) *coming soon*
- ACMEv2 (RFC8555) support so you can **run your own private ACME server** *[coming soon](https://github.com/smallstep/certificates/tree/acme)*
### [Your own private ACME Server](https://smallstep.com/blog/private-acme-server/)
- Issue certificates using ACMEv2 ([RFC8555](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc8555)), **the protocol used by Let's Encrypt**
- Great for [using ACME in development & pre-production](https://smallstep.com/blog/private-acme-server/#local-development-pre-production)
- Supports the `http-01` and `dns-01` ACME challenge types
- Works with any compliant ACME client including [certbot](https://smallstep.com/blog/private-acme-server/#certbot-uploads-acme-certbot-png-certbot-example), [acme.sh](https://smallstep.com/blog/private-acme-server/#acme-sh-uploads-acme-acme-sh-png-acme-sh-example), [Caddy](https://smallstep.com/blog/private-acme-server/#caddy-uploads-acme-caddy-png-caddy-example), and [traefik](https://smallstep.com/blog/private-acme-server/#traefik-uploads-acme-traefik-png-traefik-example)
- Get certificates programmatically (e.g., in [Go](https://smallstep.com/blog/private-acme-server/#golang-uploads-acme-golang-png-go-example), [Python](https://smallstep.com/blog/private-acme-server/#python-uploads-acme-python-png-python-example), [Node.js](https://smallstep.com/blog/private-acme-server/#node-js-uploads-acme-node-js-png-node-js-example))
### [SSH Certificates](https://smallstep.com/blog/use-ssh-certificates/)
* Use [certificate authentication for SSH](https://smallstep.com/blog/use-ssh-certificates/): connect SSH to SSO, improve security, and eliminate warnings & errors
* Issue SSH user certificates using OAuth OIDC
* Issue SSH host certificates to cloud VMs using instance identity documents
