Overview

Deploy new versions gradually to a small percentage of users, monitor metrics for issues, and automatically rollback or proceed based on predefined thresholds.

When to Use

• Low-risk gradual rollouts
• Real-world testing with live traffic
• Automatic rollback on errors
• User impact minimization
• A/B testing integration
• Metrics-driven deployments
• High-traffic services

Quick Start
