How does ConfD store multiple configurations within same namespace in the A.cdb. We have requirement to that ConfD support the configuration XML of multiple devices, each with it own “device id” and be able to retrieve that configuration by “device id”.

ConfD (Configuration Daemon) is a “per device” management agent software framework.  
A software framwork that does support multiple configurations within the same namespace is the [Cisco Network Services Orchestrator (NSO)](https://developer.cisco.com/site/nso/) with its “Common Data Model” (CDM) feature .
