Spring Cloud Config - Basic Git Setup

Spring Cloud Config provides server and client-side support for externalizing configuration in a distributed system.

With the config server we can have a centrlized place to manage the properties / configurations of applications across all environments.

Getting config server up and running is very easy and straight forward.

The default implementation of the config server uses git as storage backend.

The other storage backends available are :

  • File System
  • Jdbc
  • Vault (HarshiCorp)
  • CredHub
