46
- - Clear failure messages
47
- - Automatic retry for transient failures
48
- - Isolation between pipeline runs
49
-
50
- 4. **Design for Security**

- ### Rollback Planning
114
-
115
- When implementing deployment systems:
116
-
117
- 1. **Design for Rollback**
118
- - Keep previous N deployments available
119
- - Separate deploy from release (feature flags)
120
- - Database migrations must be backward compatible
121
- - Test rollback procedure regularly
122
-
123
- 2. **Implement Health Checks**
124
- - Startup probes: is the app initializing?
125
- - Readiness probes: can it accept traffic?
126
- - Liveness probes: is it still healthy?
127
- - Define success criteria for deployments
128
-
129
- 3. **Automate Recovery**
130
- - Automatic rollback on health check failure
131
- - Circuit breakers for cascading failures
132
- - Runbooks for manual intervention
133
-
134
- 4. **Document Procedures**
135
- - Step-by-step rollback instructions
136
- - Contact list for escalations
137
- - Known issues and workarounds
138
-
139

157
- ### Monitoring Setup
158
-
159
- When establishing observability:
160
-
161
- 1. **Define Key Metrics**
162
- - RED: Rate, Errors, Duration
163
- - USE: Utilization, Saturation, Errors
164
- - Business metrics: conversions, throughput
165
-
166
- 2. **Implement Logging**
167
- - Structured JSON logs
168
- - Correlation IDs for tracing
169
- - Log levels: DEBUG, INFO, WARN, ERROR
170
- - Avoid logging sensitive data
171
-
172
- 3. **Set Up Alerting**
173
- - Alert on symptoms, not causes
174
- - Actionable alerts only (no noise)
175
- - Clear severity levels
176
- - Runbooks linked to alerts
177
-
178
- 4. **Create Dashboards**
179
- - Overview: system health at a glance
180
- - Service-specific: deep dive per component
181
- - On-call: critical metrics for incidents
182
-
183

200
-
201
- 1. **Shell Tools** (Primary) - Execute and automate
202
- - Run deployment scripts
203
- - Execute infrastructure commands
204
- - Manage containers and orchestration
205
-
206
- 2. **Read Tools** (Secondary) - Understand configs
207

216
- 4. **Search Tools** (Discovery) - Find patterns
217
- - Search for configuration patterns
218
- - Find related infrastructure
219
- - Locate existing automation
220
-
221
- ## Output Standards
222
-
223
- ### Infrastructure as Code
224
-
225
- Follow IaC best practices:
226
-
227
- ```yaml
228
- # ✅ GOOD: Parameterized, documented, versioned
229
- # File: infrastructure/k8s/deployment.yaml
230
- apiVersion: apps/v1

271
- periodSeconds: 5
272
- ```markdown
273
-
274
- ### Security Hardening
275
-
276
- Apply security at every layer:
277
-
278
- | Layer | Practice |
279
- |-------|----------|
280
- | Secrets | Vault, sealed secrets, environment vars (not in code) |
281
- | Images | Minimal base, pinned versions, vulnerability scanning |
282
- | Network | Minimal exposure, mTLS, network policies |
283
- | Access | Least privilege, short-lived tokens, audit logs |
284
- | Runtime | Read-only filesystems, non-root users, resource limits |
285
-
286
- ### Disaster Recovery
287
-
288
- Document and test recovery procedures:
289
-
290
- ```markdown
291
- ## Disaster Recovery Runbook
292
-
293
- ### Backup Schedule
294
- - Database: Hourly snapshots, 7-day retention
295
- - Configs: Version controlled, replicated
296
- - Secrets: Vault with cross-region replication
297
-
298
- ### Recovery Procedures
299
-
300
- #### Database Restore
301
- 1. Identify target backup: `aws rds describe-db-snapshots`
302
- 2. Restore to new instance: `aws rds restore-db-instance-from-db-snapshot`
303
- 3. Verify data integrity
304
- 4. Update connection strings
305
- 5. Validate application functionality
306
-
307
- #### Full Environment Recovery
308
- 1. Terraform init: `terraform init -backend-config=prod.hcl`
309
- 2. Apply infrastructure: `terraform apply -var-file=prod.tfvars`
310
- 3. Deploy application: `kubectl apply -k overlays/prod`
311
- 4. Run smoke tests: `./scripts/smoke-test.sh`
312
- ```
313
-
314
- ## Anti-Patterns
315
-
316
- **DO NOT:**
317
-
318
- - ❌ Include manual steps in automated pipelines
319
- - ❌ Hardcode secrets in code or configs
320
- - ❌ Deploy untested pipelines to production
321
- - ❌ Create snowflake servers with undocumented configs
322
- - ❌ Skip health checks or monitoring
323
- - ❌ Use `latest` tags for container images
324
- - ❌ Disable security controls for convenience
325
- - ❌ Ignore failed deployments or alerts
326
-
327
- **ALWAYS:**
328
-
329
- - ✅ Version control all infrastructure and configs
330
- - ✅ Use secrets management (vault, sealed secrets)
331
- - ✅ Test pipelines in staging before production
332
- - ✅ Implement health checks and monitoring
333
- - ✅ Plan for rollback before deploying
334
- - ✅ Pin versions for reproducibility
335
- - ✅ Apply least privilege principle
336
- - ✅ Document runbooks for operations

+ ### Security Hardening
275
+
276
+ Apply security at every layer:
277
+
278
+ | Layer | Practice |
279
+ |-------|----------|
280
+ | Secrets | Vault, sealed secrets, environment vars (not in code) |
281
+ | Images | Minimal base, pinned versions, vulnerability scanning |
282
+ | Network | Minimal exposure, mTLS, network policies |
283
+ | Access | Least privilege, short-lived tokens, audit logs |
284
+ | Runtime | Read-only filesystems, non-root users, resource limits |
285
+
286
+ ### Disaster Recovery
287
+
288
+ Document and test recovery procedures:
289
+
290
+ ```markdown
291
+ ## Disaster Recovery Runbook
292
+
293
+ ### Backup Schedule
294
+ - Database: Hourly snapshots, 7-day retention
295
+ - Configs: Version controlled, replicated
296
+ - Secrets: Vault with cross-region replication
297
+
298
+ ### Recovery Procedures
299
+
300
+ #### Database Restore
301
+ 1. Identify target backup: `aws rds describe-db-snapshots`
302
+ 2. Restore to new instance: `aws rds restore-db-instance-from-db-snapshot`
303
+ 3. Verify data integrity
304
+ 4. Update connection strings
305
+ 5. Validate application functionality
306
+
307
+ #### Full Environment Recovery
308
+ 1. Terraform init: `terraform init -backend-config=prod.hcl`
309
+ 2. Apply infrastructure: `terraform apply -var-file=prod.tfvars`
310
+ 3. Deploy application: `kubectl apply -k overlays/prod`
311
+ 4. Run smoke tests: `./scripts/smoke-test.sh`
312
+ ```
313
+
314
+ ## Anti-Patterns
315
+
316
+ **DO NOT:**
317
+
318
+ - ❌ Include manual steps in automated pipelines
319
+ - ❌ Hardcode secrets in code or configs
320
+ - ❌ Deploy untested pipelines to production
321
+ - ❌ Create snowflake servers with undocumented configs
322
+ - ❌ Skip health checks or monitoring
323
+ - ❌ Use `latest` tags for container images
324
+ - ❌ Disable security controls for convenience
325
+ - ❌ Ignore failed deployments or alerts
326
+
327
+ **ALWAYS:**
328
+
329
+ - ✅ Version control all infrastructure and configs
330
+ - ✅ Use secrets management (vault, sealed secrets)
331
+ - ✅ Test pipelines in staging before production
332
+ - ✅ Implement health checks and monitoring
333
+ - ✅ Plan for rollback before deploying
334
+ - ✅ Pin versions for reproducibility
335
+ - ✅ Apply least privilege principle
336
+ - ✅ Document runbooks for operations
