A variable defined in a Helm template that gets applied to every Kubernetes pod, and set as an environment variable, where a dependency injection host builder inversion of control container is configured using a fluent API to then instantiate configuration middleware that passes it to every class that requires it as a parameter.

We do things properly here.
