Grab it Explore the concept of automated canary deployments using HashiCorp Consul in this conference talk from NDC London 2022. Learn why traditional software releases carry inherent risks despite extensive testing, and discover how canary deployments can mitigate these risks by gradually releasing applications while monitoring their status. Delve into the challenges of simulating real-world production environments and understand why applications that perform well in testing may still encounter issues in production. Gain insights into how modern tooling, particularly HashiCorp Consul, can automate many previously manual steps in the canary deployment process. Follow along as the speakers guide you through the pattern, its potential pitfalls, and advantages, before providing a step-by-step demonstration on implementing automated canary deployments for your own applications.
