We Prepared for 1 Million, But You Gave Us 2 Million
We actually had the champagne on ice—and a nice “1 Million Requests” digital banner ready to go. We were tracking the numbers steadily, waiting for the moment to celebrate that big seven-figure milestone.
But things move fast in software development.
November didn’t just break the record; it completely shattered it. RocketFlag served 2.13 million requests in a single month.
To be clear, that is 2.13 million legitimate feature flag evaluations served to your users. That figure excludes the noise, bot traffic, and attacks that our infrastructure silently filters out every day.
It has been just under a year since we launched the service on Google Cloud, and hitting this volume is a massive validation of our infrastructure and our mission.
What this milestone means for you
Processing over 2 million requests in a month proves that RocketFlag isn’t just a tool for hobbyists, (which it totally can be) it’s a robust platform capable of handling scale while maintaining the speed you need for production environments.
We built RocketFlag to help you release software faster and safer. Seeing this kind of uptake confirms that teams are looking for a solution that just works.
We believe this growth is driven by three things that set us apart:
- Predictability: In a market full of complex, usage-based billing, teams are flocking to our fixed pricing model. You shouldn’t be penalised for success just because your traffic spikes.
- Simplicity: We focus on exceptional ease of use. You don’t need a PhD in configuration management to set up a flag. You just log in, create a flag, and get back to coding.
- Reliability: Built on Google Cloud, we offer the stability required for critical feature management, whether you are running a staggered rollout or a simple toggle.
Here’s to the next year
To everyone currently using RocketFlag to decouple their deployments from their releases: Thank you.
You are the reason we are obsessively improving our cohorts, refining our audit logs, and ensuring our collaborative Teams plan helps you move faster.
We are incredibly happy to see you using the platform to innovate with less risk. We have plenty more features in the pipeline to make your developer experience even better in year two.
