Introduction

MHConfig is a Multi Hierarchy Configuration server to obtain reproducible and dynamic configuration in a easy way.

The idea of this service is to solve a series of problems:

• The coupling of the code with the configuration, which prevents an agile deployment either to test experimental functionalities, to modify the existing functionality or to deprecate a functionality.
• Configuration management in the case of multiple environments (e.g. development, pre-production and production), data centers or services
• Allow to detect configuration changes and to reload them hot without losing the possibility to have a consistent view (two requests have to return the same configuration even if it has been changed if necessary).
• Avoid the high computational cost of having this logic in a separate library for each of the services.
