Importance of Configuration Management
In enterprise applications, configuration management is the most underrated operator that keeps everything integrated and running smoothly. It acts as a backstage manager ensuring all lights are in place, theatrical queues are ready, and the show can go on without a hiccup. Especially, while dealing with multi-environment deployments, with tight-knit CI/CD processes, one wrong configuration can pose an application-wide shutdown risk.
Multi-environment enterprise applications carry their own set of challenges and managing configs is no exception. We all have heard the famous “But, it was working on my machine!” excuse more times than daily salutations.
