The conference talk "Flags of Flexibility" focuses on the use of feature flags in software development to enhance agility, manage risks, and facilitate continuous iteration. It covers the benefits of feature flags for gradual rollouts, A/B testing, and experimentation, providing practical insights and best practices for optimizing release processes. The session is perfect for software developers, product managers, and other professionals involved in software development, emphasizing the importance of feature flags in modern practices.


In today’s fast-paced tech landscape, agility is critical to staying ahead. Feature flags (also known as feature toggles) offer a powerful way to roll out new features, manage experiments, and respond to bugs—without the need to redeploy code. Whether you’re releasing features gradually, A/B testing, or ensuring you can “turn off” a new feature when things go wrong, feature flags provide the flexibility to innovate continuously while minimizing risk. They also provide robust support for data-driven decision-making, giving you the confidence to make the right choices.

In this talk, we will explore the power of feature flags and how they help teams improve their release processes, enhance user experiences, and make data-driven decisions. We’ll cover real-world use cases, from reducing deployment downtime to empowering product teams to experiment without developer intervention.

This session is perfect for engineers, product managers, and anyone involved in software development. It will demystify feature flags and demonstrate how you can use them to accelerate innovation in your organization.
