Patent ID: 11616882

Abstract:
Traditionally, when a feature is updated or a new feature is released, the feature undergoes internal testing and validation before external distribution. However, some features may receive proportionately less internal usage than customer usage reflected externally. Low internal usage of features can lead to weak telemetry data, which can allow code regressions (e.g., bugs) to go undetected until the features are released to customers. Accordingly, accelerated internal feature usage is provided to mirror external customer usage. Highly used features are dynamically identified and, any deficiencies in internal feature usage are identified. Tenant sites estimated to generate at least a portion of the deficiency in feature usage are identified. These sites may be migrated or replicated to internal validation rings to generate additional internal feature usage. By increasing internal testing and validation, the stability and reliability of feature releases are increased, thereby improving customer experience and satisfaction with the software product.
