Yeah, the phoenix is a neat metaphor for systems that can self‑heal and rebuild after failure. Think about having a core that can be “reborn” in a new container or cluster whenever a component goes down, without losing state. The key is to design for graceful degradation first, then make recovery automatic. That way the whole system can rise from its own ashes in a fraction of the time it would take to manually patch it. What part of the design do you want to tackle first?
