Gates seem like the right choice since they can check conditions before allowing a release. I recall a similar question where we discussed this in class.

I feel like Azure Functions could be involved somehow, but I'm not confident about how they would fit into this scenario.

I think we might need to use a gate to ensure that the performance criteria are met before deployment. It sounds familiar from our last practice session.
