Design Review Best Practices
Mandi Walls, Chef
Design reviews are the foundation for a successful product or feature launch. In this session we will broach a few of the critical questions an SRE asks during the design review process to ensure the design and deployment will result in a sustainable system. We will cover real world examples of the pitfalls of not engaging the operations/infrastructure team early in the process.
