CI/CD pipeline workflow

Commit → parallel checks → image build → security scan → approval gate → canary → production

CI/CD pipeline animated workflow diagram A commit fans out to lint, unit tests and integration tests in parallel; all three merge into building the Docker image, then a security scan, then a manual approval gate. Rejection notifies the author and ends. Approval deploys a canary whose metrics are checked: regression triggers a rollback that returns to the approval gate; passing promotes to production and sends a Slack notification. Dashed connectors animate in the direction of execution. rejected approved regress pass ↻ re-approval COMMIT Lint Unit Tests Integration Tests Build Docker Image docker build & push Security Scan image CVEs Manual Approval human gate Notify Author END Deploy Canary 5% traffic Canary Metrics Check error rate · latency Promote to Production Rollback revert canary Slack Notification #deployments END
