My team has this one shared component that gets involved in like every feature’s development. This year, we’re loading like 5 different features onto it, all with different timelines, and my head’s about to explode trying to figure out how to make it all fly.

How does everyone else do their software releases? Do you freeze prod and then do one big release later? Throw everything into prod during dev, hope no one sees the unreleased stuff, and just announce it later? Or something else entirely?

    And if you still have concerns about causing issues you should use canary deployments (only a small % of customers are exposed to the change). It can be a lot of work to setup but if failure means support calls skyrocket or stock price drops then it’s worth it
