Does Microsoft use canary deployments? or was it deployed on everything?

Sounds like it's more of a problem caused by Crowdstrike. I'm sure azure fell over when millions of servers all freaked out simultaneously.
I guess a canary rollout of the Crowdstrike patch would have contained the impact of this.
Good lesson in rollout and heterogenous software stacks.
