Canary Deployment
Canary Deployment is a software release strategy that allows developers to test new features or updates with a small subset of users before a full rollout. This approach minimizes risk by monitoring the performance and user feedback of the new version in a controlled environment. If issues arise, developers can quickly address them without affecting the entire user base.
In a Canary Deployment, the new version is gradually introduced, often starting with a small percentage of users. This method helps ensure that any potential problems are identified early, allowing for a smoother transition and improved overall software quality.
