3. Problem You may have multiple environments – development, test, production You may use multiple components – Daemon, UI, WS, Client Difficult to manage all configuration files. 3 Multiple Deployments

4. Solution Automate build procedure for each component of each environment. Non-environment specific configuration can be saved in default configuration files. Environment specific configuration can be saved in a build script. Store modified configuration in a version control system. Follow best practices, such as encrypting passwords.
