Canary Release
Canary Release is a infrastructure term PRO71 uses to explain delivery context and decision quality in practical language.
Definition
Canary Release is a practical term that helps PRO71 describe how a system, method, control, or business concept works in delivery. We define it in an implementation context so buyers and teams can connect the term to real decisions rather than abstract jargon.
In practical context

Why it matters
Canary Release is most useful when it is tied to one real decision, not explained as an isolated definition.
Common misconceptions
Canary Release matters only to technical teams.
