Description
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
This is not directly tied to a problem but rather a feature request to enhance Spring Cloud Config Server. Currently, Azure Key Vault is not natively supported as a backend, which could simplify configuration management in Azure-based environments.
Describe the solution you'd like
I would like Spring Cloud Config Server to natively support Azure Key Vault as a backend, enabling it to fetch configuration properties directly and securely without requiring custom implementations.
Describe alternatives you've considered
Writing a custom EnvironmentRepository to integrate with Azure Key Vault.

Research direction
Start by reviewing Spring Cloud Config Server's EnvironmentRepository extension point and Azure Key Vault integration requirements. Define how a native backend would fetch configuration properties securely and what configuration and tests are needed; done means Azure Key Vault can be used directly without a custom EnvironmentRepository.
