Warum Rollback-Strategien für Kubernetes?
In der modernen Software-Entwicklung sind sichere Deployments entscheidend für die Geschäftskontinuität. Kubernetes Rollback-Strategien bieten deutsche Unternehmen Zuverlässigkeit und Sicherheit bei der Anwendungsbereitstellung:
- Zero-Downtime Deployments - Kontinuierliche Verfügbarkeit
- Risikominimierung - Sichere Feature-Releases
- Schnelle Problemlösung - Automatische Rollbacks
- Business Continuity - Geschäftskontinuität
- Quality Assurance - Qualitätssicherung

Manual Rollback Strategien
kubectl Rollback
# Deployment Rollback mit kubectl
# 1. Aktuelle Deployment-Historie anzeigen
kubectl rollout history deployment/app-deployment
# 2. Spezifische Revision anzeigen
kubectl rollout history deployment/app-deployment --revision=2
# 3. Rollback zur vorherigen Version
kubectl rollout undo deployment/app-deployment
# 4. Rollback zur spezifischen Revision
kubectl rollout undo deployment/app-deployment --to-revision=2
# 5. Rollback-Status überwachen
kubectl rollout status deployment/app-deployment
# 6. Rollback abbrechen
kubectl rollout pause deployment/app-deployment
kubectl rollout resume deployment/app-deployment
Helm Rollback
# Helm Rollback Commands
# 1. Release-Historie anzeigen
helm history my-app
# 2. Rollback zur vorherigen Version
helm rollback my-app
# 3. Rollback zur spezifischen Revision
helm rollback my-app 2
# 4. Rollback mit Custom Values
helm rollback my-app 2 --values custom-values.yaml
# 5. Rollback-Status überprüfen
helm status my-app
