Revolutionizing Software Development
summary
Argues that combining chaos engineering with feature flags measurably reduces rollbacks, speeds delivery and lowers cloud waste, citing a 23% rise in cloud infrastructure spend in 2023 and growing GenAI-driven overprovisioning. Describes a tabletop incident exercise that maps failure flows and revealed many hidden remediation steps, and a practical workflow: commit behind feature flags, deploy and test safely in prod, run lipus chaos experiments, control rollouts with open feature. Claims this cuts blast radius, reduces toil, and restores developer velocity.
