Limiting breakage with a software deployment checklist

Re:Limiting breakage with a software deployment checklist by pnevares on Sunday May 06, 2018 @08:44PM (#17009606)

The blog post refers to "RCA" three times and "RSA" once, and doesn't seem to define either acronym after reading it once.

Also this?

> And once you fail a build, then every team member in your team has to do deployments and go through the deployment checklist.

Sounds like there's a piece of context missing from the section before it. You have to do the checklist to deploy, and if you fail once, then every member of your team has to do the checklist as well?

"RCA" likely means "Root Cause Analysis". I'm not sure how to interpret RSA other than as a typo for RCA.

In some contexts, RSA in conjunction with RCA would stand for "Random Safety Audit" - but that doesn't make as much sense here as the assumption that it's just a typo for RCA and it's intended "Root Cause Analysis" meaning.
