I've worked at one of the top fintech firms, whenever we do a config change or deployment, we are supposed to have rollback plan ready and monitor key dashboards for 15-30 minutes.
The dashboards need to be prepared beforehand on systems and key business metrics that would be affected by the deployment and reviewed by teammates.
I've never seen a downtime longer than 1 minute while I was there, because you get a spike on the dashboard immediately when something goes wrong.
For the entire system to be down for 10+ minutes due to a bad config change or deployment is just beyond me.
Cloudflare’s own post says the configuration change that resulted in the outage rolled out in seconds.
