Abstract
The techniques disclosed herein enable systems to safely deploy a plurality of upgrade variants to different resource units that provide a service by utilizing small-scale deployment and validation. To deploy upgrade variants, a system receives a selection of upgrade variants from a feature group and automatically selects an appropriate set of resource units at which to deploy the upgrade variants. The system is further configured to collect and analyze telemetry data from the set of resource units to determine if any problems have occurred as a result of the deployed upgrade variants. By analyzing the telemetry data, the system can also identify one or more upgrade variants that are causing the problems. In response, the system can remove the identified variants and proceed with deployment of the remaining upgrade variants.
