Has anyone has a robust way to rollback if a release fails? The methods mentioned in this article doesn't sound very practical: https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/devops/2016/03/28/implement-rollback-with-release-management-for-tfs-2015/
IBM UrbanCode Deploy can choose to redeploy the previous successful deployment w/o any user intervention: https://developer.ibm.com/urbancode/videos/rollback-scenarios-in-ibm-urbancode-deploy/
