Configuration options for strategies

You can customize how a deployment strategy behaves in Platform Settings > Deployment Strategies. Each strategy includes configurable settings that control rollback triggers, telemetry-based monitoring, and traffic pacing.

These options let you:

  • Define automatic rollback rules based on metrics
  • Choose which telemetry signals to monitor during rollout
  • Adjust how quickly traffic shifts from one version to another

Configure rollback with metrics​

Set up automatic rollback triggered by telemetry signals:

  • Metric name – e.g., http.error_rate
  • Threshold – Numeric value that triggers rollback
  • Comparison – greater_than, less_than, or equal

How often nullplatform checks metrics​

  • First 5 minutes: Every 30 seconds (fast detection during initial rollout)
  • After 5 minutes: Every 1 minute
  • After 2 hours or once the deployment is finalized: Checks stop automatically

This approach balances quick detection with system performance.

Reference: available metrics by deployment type​

Kubernetes, Container, and instance-based deployments

Metric nameDescription
system.memory_usage_percentagePercentage of memory usage on the instance
http.response_timeAverage HTTP response time in milliseconds
system.cpu_usage_percentagePercentage of CPU usage on the instance
http.healthcheck_failNumber of failed health checks within the evaluation window
http.rpmNumber of HTTP requests per minute
http.error_rateRate of HTTP 4xx & 5xx errors over total requests
http.healthcheck_countTotal number of health checks performed

Serverless deployments

Metric nameDescription
serverless.throttlesNumber of throttled executions due to concurrency or rate limits
serverless.concurrent_executionsNumber of concurrent executions in progress
serverless.invocationsTotal number of function invocations
serverless.durationAverage duration of function executions in milliseconds
serverless.errorsTotal number of failed invocations due to errors

Configure traffic pacing​

Configure gradual traffic shifting:

  • Interval – Time between increments (e.g., 30s)
  • Step size – Percentage of traffic per step (e.g., 10%)
