Rollback
What Is a Rollback?
A rollback is the act of reverting a release or change after it causes a problem in production. It is one of the fastest ways to reduce user impact when a deployment introduces instability.
Why Rollbacks Matter
Rollbacks matter because they:
- reduce incident duration,
- protect customer-facing systems,
- support safer release practices,
- influence Time To Restore Service.
