Superposition is a cloud configuration and experimentation management platform that allows software teams to manage their configuration via a central location, run multi-variate experiments for different configuration values and evaluate results of these experiments and conclude them accordingly.
The Superposition platform comes with three components:
- Context-Aware-Configuration - a flexible configuration management system that supports contextual overrides for configuration keys
- Experimentation - a experimentation management system that allows supplying different configuration values to equal-sized cohorts (facilitating A/B testing)
- Metrics - a metrics sub-system that interacts with analytics backends to provide supporting metrics that enable conclusions to be drawn from experiments (TBD)
The fastest way to setup superposition along with a demo-app is to use the following docker command:
docker run -d -p 8081:9090 -p 8080:8080 datron1/superposition-demo-app:latest
Once you run this command, you'll find the demo app at localhost:8081 and Superposition at localhost:8080. Play around to understand Superposition better, then dive into the documentation below!
