Hi,
I have a project hosted on another PaaS. I'd like to try Railway, but I don't want to do a hard cutover. Is it possible to do a partial migration, where a percentage of my traffic goes to Railway?
This used to be possible when services primarily used A / AAAA records. Is there a tried-and-true approach for services which use CNAMEs?

If you're looking for a purely DNS-based solution, I think Cloudflare's load balancer [0] may work for this.
Otherwise, I'd look into spinning up a reverse proxy that your domain points to, and have that proxy traffic to your other PaaS + Railway (Caddy with a LB policy of random is the easiest to set-up [1])
