Deploy
Deployment ensures that all data warehouse and business intelligence changes are rolled out to test and production environments in an efficient, orderly and auditable manner. This includes a wide range of components, including data movement, data transformations, database changes, ad hoc reporting solutions, reports and data visualizations. Collaboration, communication, organization, and a solid understanding of AITS infrastructure are all critical to the deployment process.
During deployment, all change requests are reviewed to make sure they are safe for production, and that there are sufficient rollback plans, communication plans, and checks for impacted processes. The main goal is to ensure to production environment remains stable during and after the addition of changes and new products.
