Linux Bridge Automation Pipeline

Business Context + Approach

Business Context

Deployments and environment drift were high-risk points. The objective was to make release and maintenance operations predictable.

Approach

• Added preflight validation for runtime configuration and secrets.
• Standardized deployment runbooks and rollback paths.
• Added verification checkpoints after each deployment stage.

Execution Notes

Work emphasized practical operations: clear pass/fail signals and fast recovery when something breaks.

Outcomes

• Deployment risks surfaced earlier with preflight checks
• Rollback path made recovery deterministic
• Operator runbooks reduced ad-hoc troubleshooting

Implementation Snippet

if ! preflight_payments --prod; then
  echo "Deploy blocked: configuration not safe"
  exit 1
