This session dives into building a smarter progressive delivery pipeline for your applications. Argo Rollouts provides Blue/Green and Canary Deployments, which split traffic between versions and perform basic checks. But too often, this is where progressive delivery stops. Showstopping bugs might be found hours or days after deployments.

True innovation happens when you pair Argo Rollouts with feature flags like those from OpenFeature. OpenFeature extends feature flags beyond simple on/off toggles. OpenFeature enables targeting specific user segments, allowing controlled testing of new functionality over hours, days, or weeks. This approach lets you gather feedback from real users before a full release, reducing risks and improving outcomes.

When combined, Argo Rollouts and OpenFeature make rollbacks seamless. Argo halts traffic to unstable deployments, while OpenFeature disables faulty features for select users or everyone. Together, these tools ensure safe, efficient, and iterative innovation.
