Description RHOS Integration 2013-12-12 21:22:06 UTC
Cloned from launchpad blueprint https://blueprints.launchpad.net/heat/+spec/rolling-updates.

Description:

While managing a large group of instances, I may want to roll out changes in topology and/or configuration to a limited percentage of these instances and then wait to see if those initial rollouts produced failures or successes before deploying a larger percentage. This is known as a "canary" deployment strategy, after the old mining practice of carrying a canary in a lantern to test for air quality.
