   3. Log in to the Jenkins server.
   4. Set up the credentials in Jenkins (GitHub access token, Docker Hub, and Kubeconfig).

   2. Add a canary stage to the Jenkinsfile to perform the canary deployment.
   3. Modify the production deploy stage to clean up the canary deployment after production deployment is approved.
   4. Execute the deployment in Jenkins.
