In 2024, software development teams faced challenges with poorly executed rollouts and failed app launches. LaunchDarkly introduced Guarded Releases to address these issues by ensuring every release is monitored, allowing for quick rollbacks when problems arise, and enabling phased rollouts. The new features also provide insights into release health, real-time alerts, enhanced usability, and error monitoring. Additionally, LaunchDarkly introduced AI configs to manage the configuration of prompts, models, and configurations that power GenAI applications at runtime. New ways to manage releases at scale include a Launch Insights dashboard, flag cleanup made easy, custom role builder, and updated ServiceNow integration.
