Azure App Configuration Service is a managed service that helps to centrally manage application settings and feature flags. It provides a way to store all your app configs in one place and manage them centrally. It also provides a way to manage feature flags and control feature rollouts. Use App Configuration to store all the settings for your application and secure their accesses in one place.

App Configuration offers the following benefits:

  • A fully managed service that can be set up in minutes
  • Flexible key representations and mappings
  • Tagging with labels
  • Point-in-time replay of settings
  • Dedicated UI for feature flag management
  • Comparison of two sets of configurations on custom-defined dimensions
