Progressive Delivery Techniques with Flagger

on YouTube ↗33m

" summary

Progressive delivery automation using Flagger plus GitOps recreates deployments as a canary workflow inside clusters: Flux v2 applies manifests, Flagger clones a Deployment to -primary, scales the original to zero, and creates apex/canary/primary services; traffic is split by Linkerd + Contour and metrics come from Prometheus or Datadog. Demo shows header-based A/B routing for Firefox users, a traffic ramp of 5%→50%→100%, SLO gates like 99.99% success, <500ms latency, and automatic rollback after three failing checks.
