Configuration management

Configurations are part of any application, and in the Spring world they are in the form of the properties file, generally bundled with the application code. It is a tedious job to deploy the entire service any time there's a configuration change. What if a configuration can be managed outside of the application? This is a good idea because managing configurations externally allows us to reflect changes without deploying or even restarting a service. This is exactly what configuration management does. Configurations are allowed on the fly.
