land-and-deploy

To automate PR merge and deploy to production after CI, use a land-and-deploy workflow that merges the PR, waits for CI, deploys, and validates health with canary checks.

Canary-based production health checks validate deployment health by monitoring a subset of traffic after deploying to production, ensuring stability before finalizing the release.

Yes, land-and-deploy provides rollback options if canary health verification detects issues, ensuring production stability by reverting problematic deployments after failed health checks.

Yes, land-and-deploy enforces predefined gates throughout the merge-then-deploy sequence, ensuring CI/CD readiness checks pass before proceeding to production deployment.

The best way to manage PR lifecycle after a ship workflow is using land-and-deploy to automate PR merging, wait for CI completion, deploy to production, and verify canary health.

Canary checks reduce deployment risk by validating production health before completion, allowing rollback if issues arise, unlike direct deployment which lacks automated health verification.
