<p>This question kicked off a great comment section:</p>

<blockquote>
|

<p>Has anyone gotten an automated RCA setup to actually nail root cause without a person doing the final synthesis, or is that still mostly aspirational marketing from vendors? </p>

<div class="sreweekly-description">
|

<p>Rollback sounds great in theory, but it doesn’t always work. The CircleCI example really hits hard.</p>
|
||
<p>This reminds me of a classic article from the now-defunct company Skyliner, <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20181118140222/https://blog.skyliner.io/you-cant-have-a-rollback-button-83e914f420d9?gi=43cf0516912">You Can’t Have a Rollback Button</a>.</p>

<div class="sreweekly-description">
|
||
<p>Yes, this is a walkthrough of a vendor’s product, but the architecture is genuinely interesting and it reads like an engineering explainer rather than a sales pitch. I especially liked the wrinkle where one shard has to be designated authoritative so that custom type OIDs stay consistent across the whole cluster.</p>
