variables table in D8? What database table in Drupal 8 replaces variables table in Drupal 7?

Where are the values of Configuration stored? 

example : $config-&gt;set('message', 'Hi')-&gt;save();
Where can I find value of message variable in database?
In Drupal 8, you can find the equivalent in the config table.

mysql&gt; desc config;
+------------+--------------+------+-----+---------+-------+
| Field      | Type         | Null | Key | Default | Extra |
+------------+--------------+------+-----+---------+-------+
| collection | varchar(255) | NO   | PRI |         |       |
| name       | varchar(255) | NO   | PRI |         |       |
| data       | longblob     | YES  |     | NULL    |       |
+------------+--------------+------+-----+---------+-------+

mysql&gt; select * from config where name = 'system.theme';

| collection | name         | data                                                                                                                                                      |

  By default, the "active" configuration is stored in the database
  ("config" table). This is for performance and security reasons. This
  is the complete configuration for the entire site at that moment.
  Configuration can be exported and imported as YAML files, either in
  it's entirety, or a single piece of configuration, using Drush config
  commands or the Configuration Manager.
