Love this, and definitely where we're going. We already support S3, Azure and GCS, as well as OCI (any compatible registry) as a source in the open-source server-side evaluator. So…

You're not wrong there at all. That is a very reasonable assumption and I think the default behaviour with most early CD pipelines. Every commit leads to a deploy event. However, t…

On this, we support publishing the state to object storage (S3, Azure, GCS) and to OCI as well in Flipt. Flipt Open-Source can be run to consume from these locations. You can go as…

Thats a great idea! I hadn't thought of combining it with a schedule for when a change is readable.

Full version control, which can be collocated with other configuration for the rest of your system (thinks terraform or k8s manifests) means it becomes easier to build a picture of…

Comment #41463410
Complexity of initial implementation was certainly one, as we developed it. It’s not the most well trodden path for this kind of problem (well trodden for other kinds of apps). Obv…

Feature flag state is still served dynamically through Flipt. Your code doesn’t have to redeploy for the changes to “become live”. That’s the main benefit. Means you can experiment…

Flipt itself is open source and includes the git backend. So if that works for you, great! In our experience a lot folks came and said… but the ui is so important for us to be able…

Comment #41463320
This is actually how it works. Flipt is live tailing the repository and serving this dynamically to the clients. The repo with flag configuration can be solely for flags, or alongs…

Ask HN: Do you use an external service for application configuration?
I'm interested in understanding how folks configure the systems they build and the reasoning behind those choices. I am mostly curious about those using online configuration servic…

Nice. Have you had to develop any capabilites around knowing what changed, when and by whom? i.e. audit log or so on? Just wondering what is your process in an incident when you wa…

Nice, cool to hear flags in conjunction with canary releases. Are your flags simply configuration stored in files that your applications read at runtime? Then you push those update…

Comment #37831489
Nice, makes sense. No external feature flag solutions here then? Just leveraging your languages build tooling and changing behaviour based on an environment key?

Awesome, that’s makes total sense. Am I right in thinking the practices described here at Facebook are more like progressive delivery? As in, instead of adding code to call out to …
