For an explanation on Spring Cloud Config see http://cloud.spring.io/spring-cloud-config/spring-cloud-config.html
The runtime uses Spring Cloud Config for changing and reloading properties. In the configured folder (
spring.config.additional-locationapplication.properties (or YAML variants) as the default name is application (can be configured via spring.application.name=application).1. Client

max-interval: 10000
* To make a connection to cloud config server, see #scsauth
application.properties will not contain any property meant for the config client
2. Server
Spring config server will run separately and handle the property files. The client will communicate with the server to get the property files.
The property files will either come from the file-system or use GIT.
