Earlier this week, Optimizely’s Chief Product Officer Claire Vo and Jon Noronha, our VP of Product Management, presented via a live webinar on Optimizely’s vision for product development teams and previewed our upcoming roadmap. They explained how product development teams need to be able to balance velocity with proving value. Here are some of the […]
At Optimizely, we deploy a large amount of our code behind feature flags because it gives us the benefits of shortening our release cycle, perform A/B testing, and deploy code changes safer with rollouts. While feature flags (aka feature toggles) have helped us drive better products delivered more quickly, they tend to be very difficult […]
Feature flags allow you to slowly rollout a feature, rather than doing a risky big bang launch, and are extremely helpful when used in a continuous integration and continuous delivery environment. At Optimizely, we commonly use feature flags to reduce the risk of complicated deploys like rolling out new APIs. However, building a feature flagging […]
Not cleaning up feature flags can introduce risk to your code base. Learn how Feature Flag Removal Day can lead to better feature management. Feature flags (aka feature toggles) are a gold standard of agile software development and continuous integration for good reason: they help teams deliver new features to customers safely, and with better […]
Feature flags allow you to slowly roll out a feature gradually rather than doing a risky big bang launch and are extremely helpful when used in a continuous integration and continuous delivery environment. At Optimizely, we commonly use feature flags to reduce the risk of complicated deploys like rebuilding UI dashboards. However, building a feature […]
Emily will be speaking at Test and Learn: The Product Experimentation Virtual Summit, a free half-day virtual event for product managers, data scientists, engineers, and designers to dive deep into the intersection of insights-driven product development and agile software delivery. Save your seat to listen to Emily and other product and engineering leaders on how […]
APIs are a great way to execute repeatable actions via code instead of the UI. They provide the benefit of reusing your code vs. repeating the same action over and over again in the UI. Product development teams use our Optimizely Full Stack product to reduce risk when rolling out features and run product experiments […]
One of my favorite developers used to tell me that he does robust testing on his code, but only in production. This may give some QA engineers a heart attack, but I’m here to share a little secret: at Optimizely, we test in production all the time. If you aren’t, you may be short-changing your […]
