This week Split announces that we have closed a $33m Series C. Our co-founders, Adil Aijaz, Patricio “Pato” Echagüe, and Trevor Stuart do an in-house AMA.

Software development has an impact gap: 80% of features have no or negative impact.

With feature flags as a foundation for controlled rollout, dev teams can measure and experiment as they deliver new features.

When versioning your API, consider the tradeoffs between distinct microservices and feature flags.

Staging environments aren’t great reflections of reality. Instead, investing in CI/CD, feature flags, and QA can skip your code straight to production.

Feature launches in leading engineering teams increasingly look like a ramp rather than a one time switch, going through dogfooding, debugging, max power ramp, scalability and learning phases.

If your release train is moving slower than you would like, take a look at these three essential ingredients you should have.

Col. John Boyd came up with a theory of warfare called the OODA loop (Observe, Orient, Decide, Act). Companies compete through OODA loops in product. Instead of air-to-air combat, a company that is better at “rapidly delivering valuable software” has a better chance for overcoming competition.

Feature Flag usage spreads throughout the product & engineering team. Learn to manage your feature flags debt with Split. Read it now!
