Turn Me On With Cloud-Native Feature Flags

Explore the world of cloud-native feature flags in this insightful conference talk from KubeCon + CloudNativeCon Europe. Dive into the Open Feature project, a CNCF sandbox initiative aimed at creating a universal specification for feature flags across the cloud-native ecosystem. Learn how Kubernetes-native implementation of Open Feature enables various pod workloads, including web servers, C processes, and serverless functions, to leverage feature flags using Kubernetes native primitives or remote configuration. Discover key project components like FlagD, understanding their design choices and usage in creating a comprehensive feature flagging system. Gain valuable insights from Alex Jones, a project team maintainer, as he shares first-hand experiences and anecdotes of community collaboration. Get inspired to implement feature flags in your own workloads and unlock new possibilities for experimentation, chaos testing, and market research in cloud-native environments.
