How to manage configurations for Appian objects like database connection string, as it would be different for different environments (dev/test/prod) or password may be changed frequently for database, so we can't hardcode database connection while adding connector?

Also can we integrate with third parties provider for configuration management, for example if i am adding connected service (Azure SQL) for database, can we use Azure Key Vault to read connection string, user and passwords during runtime?

    AFAIK
    Azure Key vault and other services are not possible.

    I am not a administrator but the admin guys i worked with used an oldschool encrypted folder for sensitive data and shared password safe software for DB User. 

    you can find a lot of useful information on the following page:
