Plan safe production deployments using a structured 5-phase workflow: Prepare, Backup, Deploy, Verify, and Confirm or Rollback. This process guides teams through each step to reduce risk and downtime during production releases.

Implement rollback procedures for continuous deployment by defining emergency strategies during the Prepare phase. The workflow specifies rollback actions for blue-green, canary, and rolling strategies to ensure rapid recovery if verification checks fail.

Choose blue-green or canary deployment strategies based on your platform selection and risk tolerance. The decision framework guides you to the appropriate method, balancing rollout speed against the need for incremental traffic shifting and verification.

Verify a production release during the Verify phase by running specified verification checks after the Deploy phase. If checks pass, confirm the rollout; if they fail, execute the predefined rollback procedures to restore the previous state.

Yes, the deployment workflow applies across multiple platforms. It includes a decision framework specifically for platform selection to ensure the chosen deployment method and rollback procedures fit your target environment.
