Choose and execute deploy strategies

Rolling, blue-green, canary: pick per risk profile and wire automated rollback triggers.

advanced~35 minDevOps EngineersSREsCloud Architects

Steps

  1. 1Default to rolling with readiness gates for stateless services
  2. 2Canary risky changes: 5% traffic, auto-halt on error-rate delta
  3. 3Blue-green for schema-sensitive releases needing instant revert
  4. 4Every deploy ships with a one-command rollback rehearsed quarterly
  5. 5Verify post-deploy: synthetic checks plus error-budget burn alerting
  6. 6Record release notes linking PRs for audit trails

Common Pitfalls

  • ▲Migrations entangled with app deploys violating expand-contract
  • ▲Rollback tested for the first time during an incident
