Our Product Is Production Traffic
summary
Pivotal Web Services runs a public, multi-tenant Cloud Foundry and deploys open-source CF biweekly deploys to get fast developer feedback. Operations runs BOSH, Concourse and DataDog, manages ~350+ Diego cells, and runs a deploy pipeline that can take up to seven hours. Feature-flagged Diego rollouts use 10-way feature flagging so changes reach 10%, 50%, then 100% of cells. Practices include SLIs from user-facing checks, heavy pairing, repave experiments (Bosch recreate causes races), and quieter, more meaningful alerts.
