[jira] [Commented] (OFBIZ-9498) Improve DevOps using environment variable configuration

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-9498?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=17450450#comment-17450450 ] 

Marco RODRIGUES commented on OFBIZ-9498:
----------------------------------------

 
{{Hi,}}

{{I am starting a training course with Néréide to improve my skills in community contribution and get to know OfBiz better}}

{{I went through a lot of the related threads to get an idea of where this is at.}}
{{Globally, there seem to have thre main ways with various implementation :}}
{{- in code}}
{{- in the application database}}
{{- in system (file or environment variable)}}
{{If solution that seems the most used by mainstrem projects, is to store overridable sensitive data in a system file, there seems to have no perfect solution.}}
{{It depends on the person responsible for security and the policy they apply. Both to secure and to identify and respond to intrusions}}

{{As Jacques Le Roux says : "I think we can suggest more than one solution and people can then pick the one
fitting more for them"}}

{{For the overload in the application code, this is a case which I think is handled by the usual development processes.}}
{{For the other cases, which use a resource that can be qualified as external, and which make it possible to respond to problems of the "ISO/CEI 27002, 6.1.2 Segregation of duties" type, this requires that the application code provide for an activation of the available cases and a mechanism. overloading of variable values.}}
{{Then each production manager will be able to manage independently of the application.}}

{{Nereide agreed to pull us the code they use to manage environment variables on https://github.com/apache/ofbiz-framework/pull/355}}
It seems to me that this is a good base on which to work. With your help, I should be able to come up with a solution that is useful and acceptable to all. {{}}
