Rule of thumb : Secrets → Key Vault Configs → App Configuration Use both for secure + flexible configuration management. Azure Key Vault Purpose : Securely store sensitive information such as secrets, keys, and certificates. Use Cases : Store API keys, connection strings, tokens. Manage and rotate TLS/SSL certificates. Protect cryptographic keys used for encryption/decryption. Strengths : Built-in hardware security module (HSM) support. Access policies and RBAC for fine-grained control. Automatic secret rotation with some Azure services. Logging and monitoring via Azure Monitor. Limitations : Not designed for feature flags or configuration settings that change frequently. API calls can add latency if used excessively at runtime. Azure App Configuration Purpose : Centralized application configuration management . Use Cases : Store non-sensitive app settings (feature flags, UI options, app behavior). Versioned configurations and labels (per environment, per region). Enable dynamic configuration refresh in apps. Strengths : Feature flag management built-in. Supports key-value pairs with labels for environment separation. Integration with Azure Functions, App Service, AKS, and more. High availability and global distribution. Limitations : Not designed to store secrets or keys. Does not provide encryption key lifecycle management. When to Use Which Use Key Vault when : Handling secrets (DB passwords, API keys). Managing certificates and encryption keys. Need secure storage with strong access policies. Use App Configuration when : Handling app configs (feature flags, toggle dark mode, regional endpoints). Need dynamic refresh without redeployment. Want environment-based configuration with versioning. How They Work Together In most real-world solutions, you combine both : Use Azure App Configuration for general settings and feature management. Reference Azure Key Vault inside App Configuration for sensitive values. Example: AppConfig:DbConnectionString → points to Key Vaul
