Method and system for implementing safe deployment of features

A method for implementing a safe deployment of a first feature in a computing environment, comprising:

• receiving registration information for the first feature, the registration information including at least one of a second feature on which the first feature depends and a feature type on which the first feature depends;
• identifying, based on the second feature or the feature type, a target build version that meets dependency requirements of the second feature or the feature type;
• obtaining a list of build versions for a plurality of computing devices in the computing environment;
• identifying, from among the plurality of computing devices, one or more computing devices that have build versions that meet the target build version;
• marking one or more computing devices as being available for deployment of the feature;
• and
• advancing deployment of the feature to the one or more computing devices.

A non-transitory computer readable medium on which are stored instructions that when executed cause a programmable device to perform functions of:

• receiving information about a first feature, the first feature being a feature that has become available for being deployed in a computing environment, the information received including feature dependency information, wherein the dependency information indicates a dependency requirement for the first feature;
• identifying, based on the dependency information, a target build version that meets the dependency requirement;
• determining that a computing device meets the target build version;
• upon determining that the computing device meets the target build version, attributing a tag to the computing device, the tag identifying the computing device as being available for deployment of the feature;
• and
• advancing deployment of the feature to the computing device.
