A retail company is releasing a new checkout flow. The team wants to expose the new flow to 5% of users first, monitor error rates and conversion for 30 minutes, then gradually increase to 25%, 50%, and finally 100%. The application runs on a Kubernetes cluster with multiple replicas. Which deployment technique should the team use?

In-place release by updating the existing pods directly

Rolling deployment with sequential pod replacement

Blue-green deployment with a full traffic switch after validation

Canary deployment with incremental traffic percentage increases

What is a key advantage of an in-place release compared to other deployment strategies?

It provides a gradual traffic shift to the new version

It minimizes resource usage by updating existing infrastructure

It eliminates the risk of downtime during the update

It allows instant rollback to the previous version

What is a key benefit of using a blue-green deployment strategy?

It requires no additional infrastructure or resources

It updates servers one by one to minimize resource usage

It gradually exposes a small percentage of users to the new version

It allows immediate rollback by switching traffic back to the previous environment

What is a primary characteristic of a rolling deployment?

Servers are updated in batches to maintain availability

A small percentage of users is routed to the new version first

All servers are updated simultaneously

Traffic is switched between two identical environments
