Summary

LaunchDarkly has become the first feature management solution to pursue FedRAMP authorization, aiming to help federal agencies improve their development processes. Feature management allows for granular control over software features and can be used alongside Continuous Integration/Continuous Delivery (CI/CD) processes. This approach enables faster development and quicker reactions to incidents while reducing risk to the agency. LaunchDarkly is already in use by 15 federal agencies, assisting them with responsiveness to executive orders, incident management, and handling frequent updates related to Covid-19.
