When using AWS Parameter Store as a backend, you can share configuration with all applications by placing properties within the `/application` hierarchy.

For example, if you add parameters with the following names, all applications using the config server will have the properties `foo.bar` and `fred.baz` available to them:

[source]
----
/config/application/foo.bar
/config/application-default/fred.baz
