Inputs to gather first

deployment strategy
risk tolerance
monitoring setup

Recommended workflow

Step 1: Assess deployment risk tolerance
Step 2: Design feature flag strategy
Step 3: Implement canary deployment pipeline
Step 4: Set up automated canary analysis
Step 5: Configure instant rollback
Step 6: Monitor and optimize
