If you've experienced issues or are worried about deploying changes to production, on a Friday or another day, when did you last deploy something?
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Can you make deployments smaller and more frequent?
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Deploying regularly makes each deployment less risky and having a smaller changeset makes it easier to find and fix any issues that arise.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
I'm much happier deploying to production if I've already done so that day, or at least that week.
|
|

Any time more than that, or if the changeset is large, the more likely there will be issues and the longer it will take to resolve them.
