Migration before stabilization
Moving unstable systems to new infrastructure compounds problems rather than solving them.
Weak rollback
Changes deployed without clear rollback paths create risk that accumulates over time.
Compliance gaps
Security and regulatory requirements ignored until they become blockers or audit failures.
Hidden database fragility
Undocumented schemas, query patterns, and data dependencies that break during migration.
Automation amplifying risk
CI/CD pipelines that deploy broken changes faster without proper validation gates.
