Complex Targeting Rules in Feature Flags: Unleash Strategy Variants
Blog post from Unleash
Unleash has introduced a significant update in version 5.5 with Strategy Variants, marking a domain breakthrough in feature flag management. Initially, Unleash allowed for simple feature flag variants, enabling A/B/n testing by distributing different feature versions among users. However, the demand for more sophisticated targeting led to the development of Strategy Variants, which incorporate complex conditions such as serving specific variants to predefined user segments based on criteria like email domains. Instead of embedding these capabilities directly into variants, Unleash integrated them into existing activation strategies, allowing for intricate user targeting while maintaining a simpler, more intuitive user experience. This advancement, achieved swiftly within three weeks, underscores Unleash's commitment to continuous improvement and adaptability in its feature flag platform.
