Minor correction: the slides had the max number of hosts receiving a deployment at 30,000, not 3,000.

I think the most impressive stat is a little later in the presentation. Only ~0.001% of deployments actually cause an outage.
Anyone can create a system that generates a lot of deployments, but what really matters is that you can complete all of those deployments safely. Of course, that is still ~0.001% too many outages due to deployments and we are working hard to make that number zero.
