Global
A Ruby gem providing unified configuration management with filesystem, AWS Parameter Store, and Google Cloud Secret Manager backends.
What is Global?
Global is a Ruby gem that provides unified configuration management for applications, allowing developers to access settings through simple method calls. It solves the problem of fragmented configuration by supporting multiple storage backends including local YAML files, AWS Parameter Store, and Google Cloud Secret Manager, with automatic environment-specific loading.
Ruby and Rails developers who need consistent configuration management across development, staging, and production environments, particularly those using cloud services for secret storage.
Developers choose Global for its clean API, support for multiple secure backends, and ability to share configuration between backend and frontend code, eliminating configuration duplication and simplifying secret management.
