Design decisions
Decisions to resolve.
Architecture is a set of trade-offs. These are the questions to resolve before implementation.
Data reconciliation
Agree record counts and business checks for the final copy.
Go / no-go
Name the decision-maker and define when rollback is safer than proceeding.
Validation before handover
Test the assumptions.
Check the business workflow as well as the individual AWS resources before handing the environment to its operator.
- Run representative order and login tests.
- Verify data reconciliation and final backups.
- Confirm alert routing before ending the stabilisation period.
