πŸš€ Go-live checklist ​

Actions to perform at the moment the new platform takes over from the legacy platform. Keep this page up to date β€” add a new section whenever something is built to run "side by side" with the legacy platform during the migration, and needs a switch-over step at go-live.

πŸ–ΌοΈ Product images ​

Relayter, the system that manages our product images, currently sends its update notifications to both platforms. The new platform receives these but doesn't act on them yet, so it doesn't interfere with the legacy platform, which is still handling image updates for real. Instead, the new platform keeps its product images up to date itself in the background, by regularly checking for new images.

Go-live sequence ​

  1. Turn on processing of Relayter's update notifications on the new platform.
  2. Turn off the background job (ProductImageAttach) that keeps images up to date, since it's no longer needed once notifications are processed directly.
  3. Ask Relayter (or whoever manages that connection) to send its update notifications only to the new platform from now on.
