ConfigMap data can be consumed in Pod broadly either as an environment variable or by mounting them as files in a container.
In Kubernetes, ConfigMaps and [[Secret]]s are two objects using which configuration data can be passed to [[Pod]]s and containers running within them.
It stores the data as key-value pairs, where value can be a string or entire content of a file.
kubectl create configmap
Kubernetes do not put any hard limits on ConfigMap size, though it stores configMaps in [[etcd]]. Etcd has hard limit to store value up to 1MB
