Feature Flag Rollout overview
On-demand workflow for safely releasing a new feature to a controlled percentage of users before a full rollout. The feature owner configures a flag in the feature-flag management system, sets an initial audience (e.g., internal users or 1% of traffic), and monitors product and error metrics. The rollout percentage is incrementally increased as confidence grows, with predefined thresholds that trigger automatic or manual rollback if error rates spike. Once 100% rollout is stable, the flag is retired and the conditional code cleaned up. Reduces blast radius of new features and decouples deployment from release.
