2025 Production Deployment / Change Calendar
Production Deployment Calendar (2025)
This Production Calendar provides a centralized and comprehensive overview of all planned deployments and changes within the production environment. By visualizing upcoming updates on this timeline, teams can gain valuable insights, improve coordination, and ensure smooth transitions.
Utilizing the Production Deployment Calendar:
Identifying the Deployment/Change Type: Select the appropriate card type from the designated area to the right of the calendar. Card types represent the nature of the deployment or change (e.g., New Feature Release, Bug Fix, Security Update, etc.).
Documenting the Deployment/Change:
Create a copy of the selected card type.
Double-click the card to open it.
Thoroughly complete all relevant fields within the card, including:
Date and Time of the change
Responsible Squad/Team
Detailed Description of the change
Current Status (e.g., Planned, In Development, Testing, Deployed)
Priority Level (e.g., High, Medium, Low)
Any other pertinent information.
Planning the Change: Once all details are documented within the card, position the card on the calendar, aligning it with the scheduled date of the deployment or change.
Communication: Utilize established communication channels to inform relevant stakeholders of the upcoming deployment or change. Ensure that notifications are clear, concise, and reach all appropriate parties.
Marking Completion: Upon completion of the deployment or change, indicate its final status on the calendar. This can be achieved by:
Adding a "DONE" marker to the card.
Utilizing a Miro sticker or emoji to visually represent completion.
Post-Deployment/Change Communication: Following the completion (or failure) of the deployment or change, provide a final communication through established channels. This communication should confirm the outcome of the deployment/change, including any relevant details such as:
Success or failure status.
Reasons for any unsuccessful deployments/changes.
Alternative plans or mitigation strategies, if applicable.
PRO TIP
Highlighting Key Dates: Clearly mark public holidays, company-wide events, or other significant dates on the calendar. This practice helps prevent conflicts and ensures that deployments/changes are not scheduled during critical periods unless explicitly required.
By adhering to these guidelines, teams can leverage the Production Deployment Calendar to enhance communication, streamline processes, and maintain a high degree of operational efficiency within the production environment.
