Deploy Notes

Deploy Notes is where D3pl04abl3 publishes its articles: checklists, failure write-ups, release plans and the odd argument about what counts as done. Every piece starts from the same question. Is this actually ready to deploy?

The answers cover CI/CD pipelines, Docker images, Kubernetes clusters, cloud hosting, backups, monitoring and website migrations. They're written for teams running anything from a five-page law firm site to a SaaS product with customers in three time zones.

Articles carry the byline Evan Cross, a disclosed editorial pen name used by the d3pl04abl3.me content team. We don't publish untested scripts as production-safe, and we don't treat a green staging run as proof of anything in production. When something is opinion, we say so. When we cite a number, we link to where it came from.

The archive is small because we started publishing in September 2026. It'll grow one useful article at a time.
