FlowchartCI/CD pipelineMedium
Staged deploy with approval gate
Promote a build through staging, smoke tests, manual approval, and production rollout.
What this diagram shows
Step 01
Stage then smoke
Every build lands in staging first and has to survive the smoke suite.
Step 02
Human approval
A reviewer either promotes to production or holds the release.
Step 03
Health monitoring
Production traffic is watched; a regression triggers an automatic rollback.
About flowchart diagrams
Flowcharts map out a process as boxes and arrows. They work well when you need to explain how a decision, workflow, or pipeline moves from one step to the next.
