由于Spring Cloud Config默认采用了Git存储，相信很多团队在使用Spring Cloud的配置中心时也会采用这样的策略。即便大家都使用了Git存储，可能还有各种不同的配置方式，本文就来介绍一下两种常用的配置策略。
第一种：多个项目公用一个Git仓库，用不同的目录区分项目
主要的配置项如下：
spring.cloud.config.server.git.uri=https://github.com/dyc87112/config-repo.git
spring.cloud.config.server.git.search-paths=/{application}
在之前的《Spring Cloud构建微服务架构：分布式配置中心》一文中，我们介绍的Spring Cloud Server配置中心采用了Git的方式进行配置信息存储。这一设计巧妙的利用Git自身机制以及其他具有丰富功能的Git服务端产品，让Spring Cloud Server在配置存储和管理的上避开了很多与管理相关的复杂实现，使其具备了配置中心存储配置和读取配置的基本能力；而更上层的管理机制，由于不具备普遍适用性，所以Spring Cloud Server并没有自己去实现这部分内容，而是通过Git服务端产品来提供一部分实现，如果还需要更复杂的功能也能自己实现与定义。即便如此，对于Spring Cloud Server默认使用Git来存储配置的方案一直以来还是饱受争议。所以，本文将介绍一下Spring Cloud Config从Edgware版本开始新增的一种配置方式：采用数据库存储配置信息。
如果您跟我一样，目前正在使用Spring Cloud Config做为配置中心的话，本篇将来要描述的问题，强烈推荐了解和关注！因为这个问题目前存在于所有的版本中，还没有完全修复。
为了说明下面的内容，我们可以先尝试重现一下问题：在一个测试环境中，将Spring Cloud Config的配置中心迁移到另外一个节点上，即配置中心的IP地址发生了变化。在完成迁移之后，我们会发现该环境下各个微服务应用的健康状态会变得时好时坏，并且在日志中会出现类似下面的报错：

之前写过一篇关于配置中心对配置内容加密解密的介绍：《Spring Cloud构建微服务架构：分布式配置中心（加密解密）》。在这篇文章中，存在一个问题：当被加密内容包含一些诸如=、+这些特殊字符的时候，使用上篇文章中提到的类似这样的命令curl localhost:7001/encrypt -d去加密和解密的时候，会发现特殊字符丢失的情况。
在微服务架构中，我们通常都会采用DevOps的组织方式来降低因团队间沟通造成的巨大成本，以加速微服务应用的交付能力。这就使得原本由运维团队控制的线上信息将交由微服务所属组织的成员自行维护，其中将会包括大量的敏感信息，比如：数据库的账户与密码等。很显然，如果我们直接将敏感信息以明文的方式存储于微服务应用的配置文件中是非常危险的。针对这个问题，Spring Cloud Config提供了对属性进行加密解密的功能，以保护配置文件中的信息安全。比如下面的例子：
spring.datasource.username=didi
spring.datasource.password={cipher}dba6505baa81d78bd08799d8d4429de499bd4c2053c05f029e7cfbf143695f5b
本篇源于Spring Cloud Config的一个问题，但这个问题并非所有人都会遇到。如果您遇到了，那必须得看看这篇，如果没有遇到您也应该看看，防患于未然！
之前有朋友提出Spring Cloud Config的配置中心在运行一段时间之后，发现修改了配置信息，但是微服务应用并拿不到新的配置内容。同时，发现配置中心存储配置的目录/tmp 的配置内容被清空了。
首先，分析一下上面的问题，其实已经有一定的线索。表面现象是微服务从配置中心获取配置信息的时候获取不到最新的配置，而其根本原因就是在/tmp目录下的缓存仓库已经被清空了，所以导致无法正常的通过Git获取到最新配置，那么自然各个微服务应用就无法获取最新配置了。
本文接之前的《Spring Cloud构建微服务架构（四）分布式配置中心》，继续来说说Spring Cloud Config的使用。
先来回顾一下，在前文中我们完成了什么：
Spring Cloud Config为服务端和客户端提供了分布式系统的外部化配置支持。配置服务器为各应用的所有环境提供了一个中心化的外部配置。它实现了对服务端和客户端对Spring Environment和PropertySource抽象的映射，所以它除了适用于Spring构建的应用程序，也可以在任何其他语言运行的应用程序中使用。作为一个应用可以通过部署管道来进行测试或者投入生产，我们可以分别为这些环境创建配置，并且在需要迁移环境的时候获取对应环境的配置来运行。
配置服务器默认采用git来存储配置信息，这样就有助于对环境配置进行版本管理，并且可以通过git客户端工具来方便的管理和访问配置内容。当然他也提供本地化文件系统的存储方式，下面从这两方面介绍如何使用分布式配置来存储微服务应用多环境的配置内容。
