A company experiences a production outage caused by a recent deployment. The team has rolled back the deployment and restored service. They now want to conduct a root cause analysis to prevent recurrence. Which approach is most effective?

Review the deployment logs and compare the new version's behavior with the previous version to identify the change that caused the issue.

Immediately deploy the new version again to see if the issue reproduces.

Check the monitoring dashboards for any anomalies during the outage period.

Ask the development team to review the code changes and guess what might have gone wrong.

Immediately escalate the incident to the next level without further investigation.

Restart the service to see if the errors stop, and then decide on escalation.

To automatically fix any issue that occurs without human intervention

What is the purpose of a rollback procedure in a deployment?

To revert a deployment to a previous known-good state if the new version fails
