DevCycle announced the launch of their highly anticipated Edge Flags feature today. Edge Flags leverages EdgeDB, a lightning-fast, globally replicated storage platform, making it easy to manage one experience across every platform.
TORONTO, Sept. 13, 2022 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Edge Flags by DevCycle is the perfect tool for engineering teams working in serverless environments. With Edge Flags, engineering teams can now use feature flags in serverless environments with the same ease they're used to within their traditional implementations.
Serverless computing environments had been traditionally out of reach for feature-flagging use cases. Their stateless nature meant that "user data" and other key information wasn't available at the time of computing, forcing teams to rely on "big bang" releases instead of controlled feature rollouts.
With Edge Flags, there's no need to worry about where your code is running. Edge Flags uses DevCycle's EdgeDB to make all data available for feature targeting right when you need it. This makes managing features and improving the user experience easy.
Common use cases include:
- Retail applications that process in-store transaction data nightly and want that data to be available for targeting the client side.
- Financial institutions that take into account information in-person at branches and want to use that information to target rollouts to their web applications.
- Privacy-centric companies that don't want to store user data client-side in their applications, and would prefer to keep user data local to the user for instant, secure decisions.
"Our goal has always been to make feature management as easy and painless as possible for our customers," said DevCycle CEO Aaron Glazer. "With Edge Flags, we're leap-frogging the market with a globally available, zero maintenance way of leveraging user data for feature targeting."
Getting started with Edge Flags is simple. Teams just need to mark data to be saved to the cloud and it is instantly available for future targeting decisions.
"DevCycle has made it easy for us to launch features quickly, with confidence. With their new Edge Flags feature, we can now target our features even with offline data. This is a game-changer for us," said Kevin Kliman, CEO at Humi.
If you need a tool to help you manage feature flags in a serverless environment, look no further than Edge Flags by DevCycle. Get started for free, with no limits and see for yourself how easy it is to use feature flags in all scenarios.
