For an explanation on Spring Cloud Config see http://cloud.spring.io/spring-cloud-config/spring-cloud-config.html 

The runtime Blueriq Runtime uses Spring Cloud Config to be able to load properties from a remote configuration server.

By default the runtime is packaged with an embedded configuration server. This embedded server is configured serve a set of property files located on the file system. Because the server is embedded, the cloud config client does not need to be configured with a remote uri of the configuration server. Instead the client will automatically load its configuration from the embedded config server.

For the embedded config server the following properties are configured:

spring.profiles.active=native 
spring.cloud.config.server.native.searchLocations=${spring.config.location}
spring.cloud.config.server.bootstrap=true

By specifying  for changing and reloading properties. In the configured folder (

 may be placed with properties to configure the runtime.

Client Config

Spring config client is integrated in the blueriq-runtime. In order to connect to a remote server instead of the embedded server, the following properties can be set in a file named bootstrap.

properties at the 

spring:
  cloud:
    config:
      uri: http://localhost:8888
      username: .cloud.config.uri=<cloud-server-uri>

Server Config

Spring config server will can run separately and handle the property files. The client will communicate with the server to get the property files.
