Rethinking SaaS Entitlement Management with Feature Flags

Monday Oct 2 / 10:35AM PDT, Pacific LM

Abstract

Feature flags are typically associated with continuous delivery feature access management. They allow you to temporarily limit production access to a new feature while it's being developed and tested, then open access for your users once it's ready. But how do you manage long-lived features like the entitlements that represent features of your SaaS pricing tiers, features that are packaged and managed by our product team?

In this session, you'll learn how feature flags can be used within a multi-tenant software-as-a-service application architecture to manage entitlements. Using your same feature management tool, you can simplify integration into your code, while enabling your non-technical users to manage feature permissions. We'll dig into specific code examples that show how to build entitlements using LaunchDarkly for feature flags both in front-end, and back-end code like Serverless with AWS Lambdas.
