A Service Level Objective (SLO)-based Continuous Integration/Continuous Development (CICD) framework is disclosed, which enables SLO-based Canary deployments, SLO-based chaos engineering, and/or SLO-based performance testing. The SLO-based CICD framework enhances and simplifies CICD pipelines and brings the pipelines in line with Site Reliability Engineering (SRE) best practices. By relying on SLOs rather than SLIs, the SLO-based CICD framework avoids the use of threshold-based alerts, which can be noisy and error prone, and the thresholds associated with threshold-based alerts can change over time due to changes in production volume. The SLO-based CICD framework uses multi-window burn rates when evaluating SLOs, which removes the reliance on a static, predefined thresholds of SLI threshold-based alerting, and removes sensitivity of such evaluations to changes in production volume.
