What is Split.io?

Split FME's March releases pull feature flags fully into the Harness DevOps platform.

Split.io now ships under the Harness Feature Management & Experimentation (FME) brand, and the substantive activity is captured in the rolled-up release-notes page rather than per-release entries. The March 2026 wave landed three real ships: Policy As Code (OPA) for FME Feature Flags, Feature Flag Archiving with RBAC and pre-archive checks, and the GA of FME steps in Harness pipelines covering full flag lifecycle management. The rest of the recent feed is scraper artifacts — page chrome captured as titles.

What is Auth0?

Auth0 hardens enterprise provisioning and refresh-token control, with AI agents in view

Auth0 is deep in enterprise identity plumbing: refresh-token metadata and bulk-revocation endpoints, SCIM and Google Workspace group sync mapped to RBAC roles, and a dashboard navigation overhaul. The work targets B2B delegated administration and finer token lifecycle control rather than end-user-facing features.

Split FME's March releases pull feature flags fully into the Harness DevOps platform.

◆ Current state

Split.io now ships under the Harness Feature Management & Experimentation (FME) brand, and the substantive activity is captured in the rolled-up release-notes page rather than per-release entries. The March 2026 wave landed three real ships: Policy As Code (OPA) for FME Feature Flags, Feature Flag Archiving with RBAC and pre-archive checks, and the GA of FME steps in Harness pipelines covering full flag lifecycle management. The rest of the recent feed is scraper artifacts — page chrome captured as titles.

◆ Where it's heading

FME is becoming a first-class part of the Harness DevOps surface rather than a standalone feature-flag tool. Pipeline-native flag operations, policy-as-code governance, and archiving as a managed lifecycle state all reflect a single direction: feature flags as a governed, audited, and pipeline-integrated component of the deployment system. The standalone Split UX is fading into Harness conventions.

◆ Prediction

Expect more Harness-platform conventions to land on FME — RBAC unification, environments and pipelines parity, OPA policy templates shipped out of the box, and observability tying flag changes back into deploy-failure/MTTR dashboards. Standalone-Split UX surfaces will likely be retired further.

Auth0 hardens enterprise provisioning and refresh-token control, with AI agents in view

◆ Current state

Auth0 is deep in enterprise identity plumbing: refresh-token metadata and bulk-revocation endpoints, SCIM and Google Workspace group sync mapped to RBAC roles, and a dashboard navigation overhaul. The work targets B2B delegated administration and finer token lifecycle control rather than end-user-facing features.

◆ Where it's heading

Two directions are clear: closing the loop between external identity providers and Auth0's own role model (SCIM Groups, Workspace Directory Sync), and preparing the platform for machine and agent traffic (M2M for third-party apps framed explicitly around AI agents). Bot-detection and passkey work continue in parallel.

◆ Prediction

Expect more self-service B2B configuration and continued M2M/agent-access tooling, following the explicit nods to AI-agent and partner-backend use cases in this window.
