Azure App Configuration
Overview
Azure App Configuration stores configuration data as key-value pairs and feature flags. Keys are case-sensitive. Same keys can exist with different labels.
Feature Flags
Feature flags consist of:
- Feature flag: a variable with binary state of
on
oroff
. - Feature manager: an application package that handles the lifecycle of all the feature flags in an application.
- Filter: a rule for evaluating the state of a feature flag.
Private Endpoints
Private endpoints can be used for Azure App Configuration to allow clients on a virtual network (VNet) to securely access data over a private link. Network traffic between the clients on the VNet and the App Configuration store traverses over the VNet using a private link on the Microsoft backbone network, eliminating exposure to the public internet.
