Production deployment patterns
Graceful shutdown, prod config, rollouts, readiness probes, and ship-with-confidence checks.
How to Mock Canary Deployment Traffic Split in Python
Simulate a canary deployment's stable/canary traffic split using deterministic request hashing to mock rollout behavior with precise percentage control.
class CanaryDeployment:
def __init__(self, stable_weight: float = 0.9, canary_weight: float = 0.1):
self.stable_weight = stable_weight
self.canary_weight = canary_weight
self.total_weight = stable_weight + canary_weight

Simulate a percentage-based feature flag rollout by hashing a user ID to deterministically enable features for a subset of users.
import random
from dataclasses import dataclass
@dataclass
class FeatureFlag:
name: str
rollout_percentage: int
def is_feature_enabled(feature_flag: FeatureFlag, user_id: str) -> bool:
hashed_id = hash(user_id) % 100
return hashed_id < feature_flag.rollout_percentage

…How to Mock a Slow Startup Probe for Fast Testing in Python
This code shows how to replace a slow startup probe's initialization with a mock to make tests run fast and reliably.
import time
from unittest.mock import Mock, patch
class StartupProbe:

self.init_time = init_time
self.ready = False
def initialize(self):
time.sleep(self.init_time)
self.ready = True

…How to build a maintenance mode page in Python
Mock a service maintenance status page that computes remaining downtime and lists affected features from a simple class.
from datetime import datetime
class MaintenanceMode:
"""Mock a maintenance mode status page for a service."""
def __init__(self, service_name: str, scheduled_end: str):
self.service_name = service_name
self.scheduled_end = datetime.fromisoformat(scheduled_end)

A mock init container that runs environment checks and a staged database migration job before the main application starts, printing progress to stdout.

self.name = name
self.steps = steps
self.current_step = 0
