Question for an atypical scenario: I have a super low-latency demanding process where an API call to GB would be out of the question. Is there a way (even a hacky way) to offload the segment assignment lookup to the low-latency process ? Curious to hear any similar scenarios anyone may have encountered before.
f
sure - you can use growthbook inline, so no network calls are required
you can bake or store the rules somewhere, then ask the SDK to assign and enable any features.
r
Neato. I sorta had the intuition that might be possible.
f
what tech stack?
r
So I guess the main thing is you just want to be able to link the event log records back to segment memberships in GB ?
f
right- if you want to use any experimentation analytics
r
what tech stack?
No idea really, it's another team. C++ I believe. It's a real time bidding system (ad-tech space).
f
I see
we do have some adtech customers
the volume of traffic is eye-watering
r
yep
f
you can do some sampling, either with the assignment rules, or in the trackingCallback if you want to make the experiment data more manageable
e
Right. And then I am guessing that the call to GB would be at build or deploy time?
f
ya, that's up to you how you want to do the assignment
you can fetch and cache the payload anyway you like, some do it at a build step, or deploy step. Some update it periodically with a separate process
