5 Surprising Ways Your Neighbors Use Feature Flags

What's this blog post about?

LaunchDarkly is a feature flag management service that allows users to control software releases by separating deployment and rollout processes. It enables various use cases such as rolling out features to specific user groups, gradual feature release with metric tracking, disabling problematic features without redeployment, granting access based on user attributes, and enabling maintenance without taking the entire application offline. While event tracking is important for some of these use cases, LaunchDarkly's primary focus is on feature flags as a service to help build better software faster.
