What I don't understand is why they don't have a canary update process. Server side deployments do this all the time. You would think Windows would offer that to their institutional customers, for all types of updates including (especially) 3rd party.
This isn't a Windows update (which absolutely does let you do blue/green deployments vis SUS), but rather a Crowdstrike update which also lets you stage rollouts and I expect several administrators are finding out why that is important.
I know about update policies, but afaik those are about the “agent” version. Today’s update doesn’t look like an agent version. The version my box is running was released something like a week ago.
Is there some possibility tu stage rollouts of the other stuff it seems to download?
