What deployment strategies does this skill support?

This skill provides comprehensive patterns for Blue-Green, Canary, Rolling Updates, Feature Flags (Dark Launches), and A/B Testing.

How does it handle deployment rollbacks?

It implements automated rollback triggers that monitor error rates, p95 latency, and availability thresholds to instantly revert to a previous stable version if issues are detected.

Does it help with database schema changes?

Yes, it includes a specific backward-compatible migration pattern (Add, Write-Both, Backfill, Read-New, Remove) to ensure database changes don't break running applications.

Can I use this for Kubernetes deployments?

Absolutely. It includes Kubernetes-specific implementation examples for RollingUpdate strategies, readiness probes, and liveness checks.
