Previously GitHub release will be created which triggers building and publishing the artifacts. Release engineers found workflow could fail after the GitHub release created. Community may subscribed to GitHub releases but if the workflow failed, artifacts for the release would not available.

Proposed solution requires release engineer to run a GitHub workflow manually by providing the Git tag which creates a draft GitHub release. During this workflow, release artifacts binary distribution, docker images (not latest), Artifactory jars created and published. Release engineer can update the release notes in draft release and publish the release. At the time when the release is published, release engineer is confident all the artifacts are ready. Upon publishing the release, another workflow is triggered to promote the release version of docker images to latest
