Amazon CloudWatch Gets Feature Flags, User-Based MonitoringCategory: Data
Competitively aligning with other application observability platforms, https://aws.amazon.com/?utm_content=inline-mention has augmented its https://aws.amazon.com/cloudwatch/ Web application monitoring service with feature flags and real-user monitoring, the company announced its annual user conference AWS Re:Invent, being held this week in Las Vegas. With feature flags, a developer can test new features of an application by only rolling them out to a select set of users, to test how the feature operates with a small subset of users, rather than roll it out for the entire user base.
Although another AWS service, AWS AppConfig, part of AWS Systems Manager, also offers features flags, though the Evidently service offers more advanced capabilities, according to AWS.
The AWS blog post listed above also provides walk-throughs of how both feature flags and A/B testing works on CloudWatch. In addition to feature flags and A/B testing, CloudWatch now users what AWS calls “Real-User Monitoring” or RUM.
