Tech Brown Bag – Runtime Configuration Management

Posted by phil atkinson

Recently I took part in a tombola guild to investigate managing our application and system configuration. We have a lot of static configuration baked into our applications and various tools which means a config change is a deployment change. With our rapid growth of applications we need a better solution that lets us manage our configuration at runtime.

Fortunately it seems AWS already have the answer, SSM Parameter Store..

Once the guild had a working prototype it was time to share the knowledge with the rest of the tech team.
