If you have a complex service that needs to be deployed to several regions, if you\u2019d like greater control over when your resources are deployed in relation to one another, or if you\u2019d like to limit your customer\u2019s exposure to bad updates by catching them while in progress, then Deployment Manager is for you. Deployment Manager allows you to perform staged rollouts of resources, meaning they are deployed region by region in an ordered fashion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">During Microsoft Build 2019, we <a href=\"https:\/\/aka.ms\/admhealthblog\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">announced<\/a> that Deployment Manager now supports integrated health checks. This means that as your rollout proceeds, Deployment Manager will integrate with your existing service health monitor, and if during deployment unacceptable health signals are reported from your service, the deployment will automatically stop and allow you to troubleshoot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In order to make health integration as easy as possible, we\u2019ve been working with some of the top service health monitoring companies to provide you with a simple copy\/paste solution to integrate health checks with your deployments. If you\u2019re not already using a health monitor, these are great solutions to start with:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><tbody><tr><td><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" title=\"Datadog's logo.\" src=\"https:\/\/azure.microsoft.com\/en-us\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/6002a08a-cb51-4b3c-beef-a5d22b7a064d.webp\" alt=\"Datadog's logo.\" width=\"128\" height=\"128\"><\/figure><\/td><td><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" title=\"The logo for Site 24x7.\" src=\"https:\/\/azure.microsoft.com\/en-us\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/53b965c5-e8eb-4cf4-b713-8e0156626b40.webp\" alt=\"The logo for Site 24x7.\" width=\"128\" height=\"128\"><\/figure><\/td><td><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" title=\"Wavefront's logo.\" src=\"https:\/\/azure.microsoft.com\/en-us\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/7c7ee3b6-e59f-4d03-87b3-cce89082228a.webp\" alt=\"Wavefront's logo.\" width=\"128\" height=\"128\"><\/figure><\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Datadog, the leading monitoring and analytics platform for modern cloud environments.
