General guidance when working as a cloud engineer
> Do not make production changes on Fridays<p>I ~hate~ dislike this advice.
If you can't deploy on a Friday, you need to fix your deployment strategy. By removing Friday from when you can deploy, you're wasting 1/5 of your available days.<p>Note: deploy != Release[1]. Use flags, canaries etc.<p>[1]: <a href="https://andydote.co.uk/2022/11/02/deploy-doesnt-mean-release/" rel="nofollow">https://andydote.co.uk/2022/11/02/deploy-doesnt-mean-release...</a><p>Edit: hate is far too stronger word for this
