Suggestions

Map ConfigMaps to keys in data to prevent multiple configuration structures from being maintained as one item in data. Otherwise items may be unintentionally overwritten during configuration update.

ConfigMaps does not have data security systems in place, like encryption. Do not store sensitive information, like credentials, in ConfigMaps, or there will be security issues such as potential data leaks of sensitive information.
