**Promotions is currently in development.**

This feature is still under active development and we've identified some issues with its resilience and reliability, particularly with recovery from cluster and network problems. We are currently upgrading our architecture to resolve these known issues and add self-healing capabilities.

We don't recommend using Promotions for mission-critical or production deployments at this time.

Continuous Delivery (CD) is an essential practice in the software development lifecycle (SDLC) that automates the release process, ensuring consistent and reliable deployment of application updates across environments. CD bridges the gap between development and operations, empowering teams to deliver changes to production with speed and confidence.
