Thinking About Configuration
secure configuration should be in files or environment variables non-secure configuration can be in files or in a database
- config in a database (with a shared cache) allows config to be updated without restarting apps/workers
- config in a file is easier. it would still be possible to refresh settings without restarting apps if the app can be told to reload the config
- in either case, non-trivial computed configuration could cause problems if the apps are not restarted
