Feature Flags

← Back to Deployment Strategies

Decouple deployment from release. Feature flags (LaunchDarkly, Unleash, Flagsmith) allow code to be deployed but not activated for users. Enable trunk-based development, A/B testing, gradual rollouts, and instant kill switches.

Key Properties

  • Deployment-Release Decoupling
  • Gradual Rollout
  • Kill Switch
