&lt;h2 id="overview"&gt;Overview&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This project models a realistic release workflow where two versions of an application run side by side. Traffic is split 80:20 during rollout so you can validate a new version before promoting it fully.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2 id="key-features"&gt;Key Features&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Canary deployment model&lt;/strong&gt; — gradual traffic shift between v1 and v2&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Helm charts&lt;/strong&gt; — repeatable, versioned Kubernetes deployments&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Prometheus&lt;/strong&gt; — collects application and cluster metrics&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Grafana&lt;/strong&gt; — dashboards for visualizing rollout health and performance&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;h2 id="what-i-learned"&gt;What I Learned&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Building this repo reinforced practical patterns for safe releases: metric-driven rollouts, observable deployments, and infrastructure-as-code with Helm.&lt;/p&gt;
