    I'm already familiar with feature flags, but I still learned something new from this video. AWS AppConfig! 🤠

      Definitely a service to try!

    In our company we are using aws secrets manager to put our configs and to put entries that works as feature flags

    • @BeABetterDev

      This could work for simple use cases. If you have complex objects this may become more problematic especially if you require version history.

      @@BeABetterDev Totally true. We are not doing version history. But so far secrets manager covers our reqs. Anyway thanks for sharing info about that service. Btw i am preparing a presentation about sqs vs eventbridge, vs sns vs s3 vs API gateway events in lambda. How to manage retries, errors, etc. Some of your videos had been helpful for that

    So this reading of config happens at runtime?
    Btw thanks for the informative video as always.

    • @BeABetterDev
      @BeABetterDev  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hey Pankaj,
      Yep it happens at runtime for each invocation. You can also add a caching strategy to not hit the data store for the config too often.

    • @PankajSingh-kq2gj

      Thanks, that makes sense. One more question, does AppConfig give out of the box caching capabilities somehow or do I need to use some other caching service? If yes which one.
      Thanks a lot for your time.
