You’re right! If you want to do that in a notebook, it’s pretty straightforward. But if you want to have it running in production, it’s a bit more complicated. Also, providing users with a gui to run these operations without a notebook has resonated with many less ml savvy users. Dilbert's boss probably didn't know much about ml... :)

I don’t use a notebook. I write plain Python scripts for batch jobs (run every day) and the UI is backed by aiohttp and HTMLX. I has no fear when I demoed my app in public for the first time since I’ve used it every day since the beginning of the year and it spins like a top.

Keep in mind that people out there pay a monthly fee for feature flags as a service. There’s definitely a market for OP’s product.

> feature flags as a service

and its a >$100mm/yr business :) things always get messy when you scale things up beyond a demo on one laptop

To be fair I set up a home grown solution in a “real” environment that worked fine. 10k sign ups per day, 200 requests per second. If you already have a separate analytics platform also paying for feature flags seems hard to justify in most cases.

right on! Sounds like you have a lot of the foundation for your infra setup, which is great
