Context

Where to store the settings data.

Options considered

• A: Store the settings in the User Database

• B: Store the settings in the service(s) they are used in. Spread out.

Decision - Option A

• It is easier to maintain

• When multiple Services use a setting, Option B can make the architecture hard to understand

• Altough Option B has less need for communication between the services, this can be reduced by caching
