This video was recorded at Code BEAM SF 19 http://bit.ly/2T3Do0U Get involved in Code Sync's next conference http://bit.ly/2Mcm4aS --- FEATURE FLAGGING IN ERLANG USING LAUNCHDARKLY by Zurab Davitiani THIS TALK IN THREE WORDS: Feature Flagging (in) Erlang TALK LEVEL: Intermediate ABSTRACT Do you feature flag your software releases? Let me entertain you with my journey to build an Erlang client as a part of a globally distributed feature management platform by LaunchDarkly. We'll start with an overview of how feature flagging works, including architecture of LaunchDarkly service. Then we'll focus on building an Erlang application, covering non-trivial role LaunchDarkly SDK clients play as a part of a distributed feature flag database. We'll draw parallels to other languages for extra fun too. Read the full abstract: https://codesync.global/speaker/zurab-davitiani/ --- THE SPEAKER - ZURAB DAVITIANI Feature flagging enthusiast, wrote an Erlang/Elixir SDK client for LaunchDarkly. Zurab started programming as a kid on an Olivetti 286 laptop running DR-DOS. Since then he has worked anywhere from startups to large corporations, accumulating an extensive experience creating, and leading teams to create, web applications and services. Currently a software engineer at LaunchDarkly, Zurab loves challenges brought by concurrency and distributed systems.
