Summary

Baseten introduces canary deployments, allowing developers to gradually shift traffic to a new deployment over customizable time windows with seamless rollback if issues arise. This feature minimizes risk by initially exposing only a small subset of users to the new deployment, which gradually increases over time. Canary deployments are designed to help engineers move swiftly from testing to deployment, ensuring more stability and a delightful developer experience.
