What is Configuration Management?
Configuration management is the discipline of defining, applying and verifying the desired state of systems and software. This profile connects the concept to KBY's practical engineering guidance.
It replaces undocumented manual changes with versioned policy, automation and drift detection. Tools may use agents or remote execution, but the core concerns remain idempotency, ownership, secrets, safe rollout and evidence that the intended state was reached.
Keep systems consistent, reproducible and auditable throughout their lifecycle.
- Maintaining server consistency
- Automating OS patching
