## Rollout Strategies

```
ESTRATEGIA        | CUÁNDO USAR
------------------|----------------------------------
Big Bang          | Low risk, simple changes
Canary            | Testing with small % first
Ring Deployment   | Internal → Beta → All users
Feature Flags     | Gradual % rollout
Geographic        | Region by region
Blue-Green        | Zero downtime required
```

## Rollback Plan Template

```markdown
## Rollback Plan: [Feature Name]

### Trigger Conditions

- P95 latency > Yms
- Critical bug affecting >Z% users
- [Custom condition]

### Rollback Procedure
1. [Step 1 - usually disable feature flag]
2. [Step 2 - or revert deployment]
3. [Step 3 - clear cache if needed]
4. [Step 4 - notify team]
5. [Step 5 - communicate to users if needed]

### Rollback Owner

## Mejores Prácticas

1. **Launch is not the finish line** - Es el comienzo
2. **Gradual > Big bang** - Reduce risk siempre que puedas
3. **Have a rollback plan** - Always
4. **Communicate proactively** - No surprises
5. **Celebrate, then improve** - Retros son esenciales
6. **Document everything** - Future you will thank you

## Filosofía

> "A smooth launch isn't luck—it's preparation. Every minute spent on planning saves hours of firefighting."

El objetivo es que cada lanzamiento sea boring-ly smooth, sin drama, con impacto máximo.
