Key Value (or Property)

About

Key value data (known also as Property) are value that have a direct relation with their key.

They can be seen as a set of data modeling attribute.

This kind of data is stored:

• in code as:
  • an collection structure called a associative array or a map.
  • the fields of an object (ie Javascript property)
  • variable: a variable has a name and holds also a value (and therefore the language implementation manipulates them as key value data)
• in file:
  • ini file
  • Apache - Configuration (httpd.conf)
  • Key Value - Properties (Property file)
