DrupalCon Vienna 2017: Drupal 8 configuration management for teams

Описание: Configuration management in Drupal 8 is a great tool if used correctly. But the complexity of todays builds together with Config Split, Config Ignore, Config merge, Feature Branches, Automatic Configuration import on deployment and human mistakes makes it hard to use it correctly.

This session will provide meaningful and battle tested deep insights in the config management ecosystem and a opinionated workflow we use in our company.

The talk will cover these problems and use cases:

Which entities and settings in Drupal 8 are content and which are configuration
Development Configuration and Composer dev dependencies
Using configuration split with all its goodness and quirks
Using git and the filesystem for automatic configuration merges
Deploying module uninstallations
Updating your code after someone has changed configuration on production
Distributing configuration changes over your team members
Using bundled configuration via features
Automatic configuration import on deployment
This talk is for:

People who are interested in efficient team development workflows.
People who want to learn more about configuration management
People who struggle with configuration management in praxis
You will learn:

Using Drupal 8 configuration efficient

About the speaker and this session:

As we have multiple projects simultaneously we have strict standards in every project to onboard new developers on projects easily. A standardised approach to configuration management is also a part of it.
