I'm new to the spring cloud config server. Consider a scenario where we have 10 spring boot microservice fetching configurations from the Spring Boot Cloud Config. I was wondering How the 10 spring boot microservices will work when the Spring Boot Cloud Config itself is down?
Can someone answer to below queries:
- If the config server is down, Will there be downtime for all the microservice connected to it?
- Let's say we have a config file application.properties in GitHub and Spring boot config refers to the application.properties file in GitHub What if the username and password to access the application.properties file itself will change?
- In terms of Disaster recovery, Do we need any backup of the config server? If yes, How can we achieve the same?
