05/23/2023, 6:45 PMdo you think custom in house configuration services are still needed? Or is it enough to use dotenv/ configmaps?Teams can definitely benefit from configuration focused services. This mostly depends on the complexity of your set up as well as the skillset of your developers though. While most devs will be familiar with dotenv might not everyone feel comfortable managing configmaps and secrets in Kubernetes. In that case you might want to think about implementing some kind of abstraction layer that simplifies configuration management and makes it more accessible to everyone (by taking care of transforming everything into Kubernetes objects under the hood) for example. While this can be done as part of a custom/in house solution is there also a lot of off-the-shelf tooling available thats worth to have a look at.
