Welcome to The Platform Playbook! In this episode, we explore how to achieve safer and more observable feature rollouts by combining the power of OpenTelemetry and OpenFeature. Drawing insights from a talk by Daniel Dyla and Michael Beemer, we dive into how feature flags can revolutionize deployment strategies, allowing developers to decouple feature releases from code deployments, perform A/B testing, and enable swift rollbacks.

Discover how OpenTelemetry’s events, traces, and metrics provide unparalleled monitoring and observability for feature flags in complex distributed systems. Learn best practices for gradual rollouts, automated rollbacks, and integrating OpenFeature’s vendor-agnostic feature flag specifications with OpenTelemetry to gain deeper insights into feature evaluations.

If you’re looking to master the art of risk-free feature rollouts and robust monitoring, this episode is your go-to guide for building resilient platforms.
