Tying OpenFeature and OpenTelemetry for Automated Rollouts of New Services

Learn how to effectively manage service rollouts by combining OpenFeature and OpenTelemetry in this 33-minute conference talk from CNCF. Discover techniques for implementing gradual traffic diversion to new services and database clusters using feature flags, with emphasis on automated percentage adjustments based on performance metrics. Explore the integration between OpenFeature, a CNCF project standardizing feature flagging, and OpenTelemetry's observability tools, which enable automatic monitoring and adjustment of rollout percentages without requiring new deployments. Master the implementation of open standards for feature flagging and observability to create more reliable and automated service deployment processes, complete with built-in hooks for seamless integration between tracing, metrics data, and feature flag values.
