Announcing Feature Workflows in LaunchDarkly

LaunchDarkly has made significant progress in 2019, serving over 2 trillion flags per day across thousands of customers and introducing product updates such as Experimentation and Data Export. The company's new feature, Feature Workflows, enhances its core platform by allowing users to create complex workflows within LaunchDarkly that better map to how their teams build, ship, and control software. Key components of this update include Scheduling, Approvals, and Metric Checks, which enable users to pre-define flag changes for future points in time, request or require approvals before making flag changes, and trigger dynamic changes to flags based on real-time operational and business metrics. Feature Workflow Templates allow teams to create standardized release processes within an organization by combining these components together. The update aims to ensure consistent best practices across teams, automate and safeguard changes to features, and create standardized release processes within an organization.
