 AltspaceVR is developing a communications platform for virtual reality, where users use consumer-grade HMDs, input sensors, and microphones in order to be present with one another in a shared virtual space. In such a young industry, it’s important we are able to rapidly iterate on our product while ensuring minimal downtime and low MTTR. As such we’ve adopted a web operations-like approach (inspired by experiences we’ve had at places like Etsy) to performing continuous deployment, feature flagging, and rampups for an installed, networked application. We’ll be sharing a high level view of some of the techniques we’ve developed, which may be of interest for anyone working in VR, games, or native applications in general.
