Out of curiosity, why are you deploying to all your web servers simultaneously? Could you not do a partial roll-out to make sure something like this doesnt happen?

I doubt partial roll out would have helped in this particular case since it only happens in high load and they roll out new code twice a day.

Correct. We don't roll out during peak load either.

Considered at least starting your release canary during peak load?
