arXiv:2607.06766v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: At Amazon Prime Video, we face the critical operational challenge of managing code deployments during live events and rapid feature releases without causing service outages. Current change control approaches use blanket deployment freezes that block all changes regardless of risk, creating significant developer toil. While prior research has explored risky change predictors, these rely on developer-specific metadata or extensive historical data, raising privacy concerns and limiting applicability to new projects. We introduce a framework center
The increasing complexity of software systems and the demand for rapid feature releases necessitate more sophisticated deployment risk assessment methods beyond blanket freezes.
This development represents a practical application of AI to critical infrastructure management, enhancing operational stability and developer productivity in large-scale tech operations.
Traditional, broad deployment freezes are being replaced by more granular, AI-driven risk assessments, allowing for continuous delivery without compromising service stability.
