Setting Up Kubernetes Deployment Strategies

Kubernetes provides a variety of deployment strategies to manage how applications are rolled out to your cluster. These strategies play a crucial role in ensuring that updates are applied smoothly while minimizing disruptions to users. A well-configured deployment strategy also serves as the foundation for automated rollbacks, enabling Kubernetes to detect and address issues effectively when a deployment does not go as planned. In this section, we’ll explore how to configure and optimize deployment strategies, focusing on rolling updates and the mechanisms that enable rollbacks.
