Deployment strategy
A deployment strategy is a method for distributing or upgrading versions of your program on various deployment environments. Traditional applications lack the agility and speed of microservices-based solutions. Developers may make changes fast, and a new version can be issued with minimal testing. The following aspects should be considered when evaluating a deployment strategy:
- Have you documented a deployment strategy for deploying your services?
- Are you using outdated tools and technologies for deploying or hosting your services?
- Is there any collaboration needed with other teams when you deploy services?
- Are you setting up the infrastructure using IaC?
- Have you leveraged DevOps capabilities to automate deployments?
- Do you have a practice of propagating the same build to multiple environments?
