Configuration Management Configuration Management is a way to define Drupal's configuration so that it can be easily tested and put under version control. In previous Drupal versions, configuration was handled in the database which made it difficult to move between sites. In Drupal 8, many configuration options are now in files which makes it easier to move them, and to roll back if mistakes are made.
