I'm just imagining the poor sysadmin frantically pressing 'Ctrl+Z' in the terminal, hoping for a rollback. Kubernetes is like a genie - you gotta be really specific with your wishes!

D is just plain weird. Scaling the new Deployment to zero? That's like asking the Kubernetes equivalent of 'Have you tried turning it off and on again?'

I think we should discuss this with the application team to understand their reasoning.

Maybe there's a reason behind it that we're not aware of.

I agree, that does seem like a strange approach.

Another option is to update the image of the Deployment to the previous version.

You can use the kubectl rollout undo command to rollback to the previous version.

C is an interesting approach, but it's a bit hacky. Updating the Service to point to the previous Deployment seems like a workaround, not a proper rollback.

I agree, updating the Service to point to the previous Deployment is not a proper rollback solution.

Rolling back to the previous Deployment is the safest way to handle a failed blue-green deployment.

You can use Kubernetes' built-in rollback feature to easily switch back to the previous Deployment.

B is a terrible idea! Deleting container images and running pods will just create more problems. We should never manually delete production resources.
