FROM ghcr.io/open-feature/flagd:latestflagd was designed with cloud-native paradigms in mind. You can run it as a sidecar, or as a central service in your cluster. If you're interested in a full-featured solution for using flagd in Kubernetes, consider the OpenFeature operator.
For more information, see OpenFeature Operator.
You can also choose to run a Kubernetes service in front of a deployment with multiple flagd pods connecting to the same data source. However, if doing so, be aware that synchronization is not instant. The service may return different values after a change until all pods have synchronized with the data source. This synchronization delay is typically brief.
:fontawesome-brands-linux::fontawesome-brands-windows::fontawesome-brands-apple: Binaries are available in x86/ARM.
!!! note
Installing flagd with `go install github.com/open-feature/flagd/flagd@latest` is not recommended, because the module depends on potentially unpublished, local workspace modules.
Please use one of the official, versioned binary releases above.
A systemd wrapper is available here.
Once flagd is installed, you can start using it within your application. Check out the OpenFeature providers page to learn more.
