Less-downtime releases
Compose has no built-in rolling update feature
Core Idea
Less-downtime releases is Compose has no built-in rolling update feature. Even if you place Nginx or another load balancer in front, you still have to coordinate how old containers stop and new ones start, or script that process yourself. It usually makes the most sense alongside Unified environments, Easy reproducibility, Self-documenting setup.
Why It Matters Here
Mathbong reuses this term across docker posts as shared vocabulary.
