Goal: Ensure that a Nomad job can be rolled back to a previous version after an external database schema change without causing data corruption or version skew between old and new application instances. Uncertainty: Canary deployments update a single task, which may leave the majority of tasks running the old code against a new schema, risking incompatibilit
Goal Enable precise, non‑integer traffic allocation to revisions for canary and blue‑green deployments, such as 33.3%/33.3%/33.4% splits. Constraints The current Cloud Run Traffic Splitting API accepts only whole‑percentage values (e.g., 25%, 75%). Both the gcloud CLI and Cloud Console reject decimal inputs with validation errors.
