# Canary

With a canary rollout traffic is split between a main model, which receives a majority of traffic, and a new version, which is given a fraction of traffic until it is decided whether to promote the model. The features for this can be seen in full in the Demos section of the documentation under `Deploying, Load Testing and Canarying Seldon Core Servers`. The key features in particular are:

1. A wizard to add a canary:

2. Visualizing metrics for both default and canary models:

3. Promotion of the Canary to be the main model.
