Vaulty vs AWS Key Management Service: What are the differences?

Developers describe Vaulty as "Avoid data breach, anonymize, encrypt, tokenize your users sensitive data without code changes". It is an open-source (Go) forward/reverse proxy that encrypt/pseudonymize/tokenize/mask/hash data between two systems talking HTTP(S). It transforms specific attributes/fields of JSON/XML/Form transparently for sender and receiver (without code changes) based on transformation rules. On the other hand, AWS Key Management Service is detailed as "Easily create and control the encryption keys used to encrypt your data". AWS Key Management Service (KMS) is a managed service that makes it easy for you to create and control the encryption keys used to encrypt your data, and uses Hardware Security Modules (HSMs) to protect the security of your keys. AWS Key Management Service is integrated with other AWS services including Amazon EBS, Amazon S3, and Amazon Redshift. AWS Key Management Service is also integrated with AWS CloudTrail to provide you with logs of all key usage to help meet your regulatory and compliance needs.
