Feature Request: Certificate Automation with ACME

Hi Pure people,
How about reducing my workload a little by supporting the ACME protocol for certificate renewal?
.
Certficate lifespans are just getting shorter, and while I have a horrid expect script to renew  certificates via ssh to flasharray, it would be much simpler if Purity ran an ACME client itself.

PS We use the DNS Challenge method to avoid having to run webservices where they aren't needed.

    Interesting idea jasoncormie​. Let me run this by the security PM team and see if this is something they've considered or if they have any plans along these lines.

      jasoncormie​ our security PM says that this is on his radar, but there are no near-term plans to implement ACME. In the meantime, he suggests utilizing our REST API to help with your certificate automation efforts.
