What it shows

  • Post-deployment smoke tests validate live endpoints before shifting traffic.
  • Health metric evaluation runs for a defined observation window (e.g. 5m).
  • Automated rollout undo executes without human intervention on test failure.

The takeaway

Never rely on engineers to manually revert failed releases; automate the rollback trigger.
