The method of claim 9 , wherein the identifying comprises identifying a first software application and a second software application deployed on the host platform that are mapped to the configuration object, and distributing the update to the table data to first and second groups of microservices of the first and second software applications, respectively.
12. The method of claim 9 , wherein the configuration object mapping is stored within an internal table of a configuration repository on the host platform.
13. The method of claim 9 , further comprising extracting an identifier of the configuration object from the software application during deployment of the software application and storing the extracted identifier of the configuration object in the configuration object mapping, in response to the software application being deployed on the host platform.
14. The method of claim 13 , further comprising transmitting the configuration object mapping including the identifier of the configuration object of the software application to the central system.
15. The method of claim 9 , wherein the distributing further comprises individually distributing the update to the table data of the configuration object to a plurality of local data stores of the plurality of microservices which already comprise the configuration object integrated therein.
