devops-and-operations

Core approach

• Prefer simple, repeatable operational workflows.
• Treat pipeline and deployment changes as production-affecting work.
• Minimize environment drift and hidden runtime assumptions.
• Keep secret handling, rollout behavior, and observability in view.

Practical guidance

• Review CI jobs, deployment automation, environment variables, secrets management, health checks, and monitoring hooks together.
• Call out brittle manual steps, missing rollback support, and poor environment parity.
