http://i.imgur.com/RJwBhxT.gifv Since the dawn of Drupal 8 and its fantastic Configuration Management system, we required an excellent way to inject this into our development workflows. Enter the Config Splits module, and we finally had an answer, or did we? Config Splits have given us a way to involve CMI in our dev workflows, including local, dev, stage, prod, and any other environments that may exist in your project most of the documentation seem to be pretty straightforward. However, when it came to documenting these workflows for several customers, I came to realize that not all concepts around Configuration Splits and Management are clear. The goal of this talk is to be a beginner's guide to Configuration Management using Config Splits, based on the experience of several customers with varied needs. In this talk, we are going over some necessary and essential points in CM Workflows: - Configuration Management as it works in Core. - The basic concepts of Config Splits. - How tools, like Acquia BLT, have defined particular workflows using Config Splits. - What are Other possible workflows for different use cases? - When using Config Splits don't make sense. - What challenges we have found with my customers. - Some lessons learned and conclusions after creating different CM Workflows.
