Course Overview

The documentation for progressive deployment is accurate only until the next release. Systems supporting this area of technology and systems delivery fail in ways that are obvious afterwards and invisible before. The most reliable predictor of sound the practice within technology and systems delivery is whether anyone reviews it when nothing has gone wrong. The programme converts progressive deployment from an area of general awareness into a set of repeatable practices. Every module pairs a short input on this part of technology and systems delivery with structured practice on the participant's own material. Participants come from operational and oversight roles, and both perspectives on this aspect of technology and systems delivery are used deliberately. Participants gain a clear basis for measuring what progressive deployment has actually achieved. Plans for this area of technology and systems delivery often fail at the handover point between functions. The programme ends where implementation begins, with the technology and systems delivery discipline broken into steps someone can start on Monday.

Expected Learning Outcomes

01

Build incident response for progressive deployment with defined severity and escalation.

02

Recognise early indicators that progressive deployment is drifting away from its intended design.

03

Manage change to progressive deployment so every release can be rolled back.

04

Build the deployment pipeline for progressive deployment so releases are routine rather than events.

05

Establish what evidence would demonstrate that progressive deployment is under control.

06

Build a concise technical standard for progressive deployment that colleagues can follow without further explanation.

07

Measure delivery and reliability of progressive deployment with indicators teams trust.

Course Modules

01

Progressive deployment: architecture and designing for failure

2 sessions · 8 points

Session 1Running an incident on progressive deployment calmly

  • Review access rights on progressive deployment and remove what is no longer needed.
  • Restore a backup of progressive deployment in a test environment and time it.
  • Establish what evidence demonstrates progressive deployment is under control.
  • Prepare the summary of progressive deployment that senior management will read.

Session 2Building lasting competence in progressive deployment

  • Record the technical debt in progressive deployment and schedule repayment.
  • Agree what will be standardised in progressive deployment and what will not.
  • Review logging on progressive deployment for coverage and retention.
  • Test the failover for progressive deployment rather than assuming it works.
02

Progressive deployment: monitoring, alerting and observability

2 sessions · 8 points

Session 1Designing progressive deployment around how it will fail

  • Estimate the resource progressive deployment requires to run as designed.
  • State the availability and recovery objectives for progressive deployment as numbers.
  • Establish the boundary of progressive deployment and record what sits outside it.
  • Close out actions on progressive deployment rather than leaving them open indefinitely.

Session 2The change to progressive deployment that caused the last outage

  • Reduce the variation in how progressive deployment is carried out between teams.
  • Configure alerting on progressive deployment that reflects what users experience.
  • Assess the exit route from any cloud or vendor dependency in progressive deployment.
  • Confirm data retention and deletion rules applied within progressive deployment.
03

Progressive deployment: documentation, support and handover

2 sessions · 8 points

Session 1Where progressive deployment typically breaks, and why

  • Build the internal briefing that explains progressive deployment to those affected.
  • Plan the sequence in which improvements to progressive deployment will be introduced.
  • Confirm the support model and escalation path for progressive deployment.
  • Document the runbook for progressive deployment to the level a new engineer could use.

Session 2Moving progressive deployment from approval to execution

  • Confirm that contractual obligations around progressive deployment are understood.
  • Apply change control to progressive deployment including emergency changes.
  • Inventory third-party dependencies inside progressive deployment and their update status.
  • Collect evidence on the present handling of progressive deployment before proposing changes.
04

Progressive deployment: capacity, performance and load

2 sessions · 8 points

Session 1Setting availability and recovery targets for progressive deployment honestly

  • Benchmark the organisation's progressive deployment against comparable operations.
  • Define incident severity levels for progressive deployment and the response each triggers.
  • Rank the weaknesses in progressive deployment by consequence rather than by ease of fixing.
  • Confirm every release of progressive deployment can be rolled back within a defined time.

Session 2Dependencies and supply chain risk in progressive deployment

  • Identify single points of dependency in progressive deployment and reduce them.
  • Decide what will be stopped to create capacity for progressive deployment.
  • Identify the data already collected that bears on progressive deployment.
  • Set delivery and reliability indicators for progressive deployment the team trusts.
