Config Manager Setup
The Config Manager is a service that is responsible for managing the configuration of the Business Connector. It is a separate service that is deployed alongside the Business Connector.
By default, the Config Manager is not ready to be used, as without it's own configuration, it will not know how to connect to and initialise it's database tables.
The Config Manager requires parameters that are passed to the application in the form or environment variables to start. See the specific installation method below for more information on how to set these environment variables.
There are two recommended ways to deploy the Configuration Manager. This guide will document each of these methods in turn.
- A single instance on a VM using Docker & Docker Compose files
- A single instance deployment in a Kubernetes cluster with Helm charts
We recommend that whichever method of deployment you choose, you should use that same method for the Business Connector deployment as well.
Next Steps
After you have succesfully deployed and started the application, using one of the methods above, you can proceed to the next step in the installation process.
