There is no public data available on how developers use feature flagging and the resulting impact on delivery cycles. This lack of data prevents teams from benchmarking their feature flagging practice against the industry. In this talk, I will present data - collected across hundreds of customers - on how developers use feature flags in their daily jobs. This data will range from the time it takes teams to release a feature behind a flag to the number of times a flag has to be turned off in an emergency. Armed with data, teams can understand what to expect when they widely adopt flags as well as compare their existing state to the industry for improvement.
