What's the difference between these two php-fpm configuration files?

Question

I see php-fpm.conf and php-fpm.d/www.conf --they are both config files for php-fpm.
(And just to be clear: neither one of those files is the same as the main php.ini config file, which is something I'm familiar with and a totally separate and different thing.)
So: why does php-fpm have/need two separate config files?

Павел Савостин · Answer

FPM uses php.ini syntax for its configuration file - php-fpm.conf, and pool configuration files - php-fpm.d/*.conf  (php-fpm.d/www.conf in our case).
You can put all pool config files in php-fpm.conf file but sometimes it's much more convenient to put them in separate files - www.conf, cli.conf, etc.
