Feature flags

Feature flags

Control feature rollouts and manage feature toggles at SKAO.

Control application behaviour at runtime without redeploying code.

Turn functionality on or off dynamically with feature flags (also called feature toggles). Roll out features gradually, run A/B tests, create kill switches, and control operations across SKAO data centres.
