How do you implement automated rollback strategies in CI/CD pipelines?

In this blog post, we’ll walk through a real-world example of implementing automated rollback strategies in a CI/CD pipeline. We’ll build a simple web application, set up a CI/CD pipeline using GitHub Actions, and integrate rollback mechanisms using blue-green deployment, canary releases, and feature toggles. By the end, you’ll have a fully functional example project that demonstrates how to recover from failed deployments automatically.
