# Example: How-To Guide from Discussion
|
|
|
|
**User Request**: "Save our discussion about deploying to production as a how-to guide"
|
|
|
|
## Workflow
|
|
|
|
### 1. Extract Content from Chat
|
|
From conversation, identified:
|
|
- Deployment prerequisites
|
|
- Step-by-step procedure
|
|
- Common issues and solutions
|
|
- Best practices and tips
|
|
|
|
### 2. Structure as How-To
|
|
Organized into:
|
|
- Overview & prerequisites
|
|
- Numbered deployment steps
|
|
- Verification steps
|
|
- Troubleshooting section
|
|
- Related resources
|
|
|
|
### 3. Find Location
|
|
```
|
|
Notion:notion-search
|
|
query: "deployment documentation"
|
|
```
|
|
Found: Engineering Wiki → Deployment section
|
|
|
|
### 4. Create Guide
|
|
```
|
|
Notion:notion-create-pages
|
|
parent: { page_id: "deployment-section-id" }
|
|
```
|

# How to Deploy to Production
|
|
|
|
## Overview
|
|
Production deployment using GitHub Actions with zero-downtime rolling updates.
|
|
**Time Required**: 15-20 minutes | **Complexity**: Intermediate
|
|
|
|
## Prerequisites
|
|
- [ ] PR approved and merged to main
|
|
- [ ] All CI tests passing
|
|
- [ ] Database migrations reviewed
|
|
- [ ] Feature flags configured
|
|
|
|
## Deployment Steps
|
|
|
|
1. **Verify main branch is ready**
|
|
```bash
|
|
git checkout main && git pull
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
2. **Tag release**
|
|
```bash
|
|
git tag -a v1.2.3 -m "Release v1.2.3"
|
|
git push origin v1.2.3
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
3. **Trigger deployment**
|
|
- GitHub Actions auto-starts from tag push
|
|
- Monitor: https://github.com/org/repo/actions
|
|
|
|
4. **Database migrations** (if needed)
|
|
- Auto-run in GitHub Actions
|
|
- Check logs for completion
|
|
|
|
5. **Verify deployment**
|
|
- Wait for health checks (2-3 min)
|
|
- Test key endpoints
|
|
- Check error rates in Datadog
|
|
|
|
## Verification Checklist
|
|
- [ ] All pods healthy in k8s dashboard
|
|
- [ ] Error rate < 0.1% in last 10 min
|
|
- [ ] Response time p95 < 500ms
|
|
- [ ] Test login flow
|
|
- [ ] Check Slack #alerts channel
|
|
|
|
## Troubleshooting
|
|
|
|
**Health checks failing**
|
|
→ Check pod logs: `kubectl logs -f deployment/api -n production`
|
|
|
|
**Migration errors**
|
|
→ Rollback: Revert tag, migrations auto-rollback
|
|
|
|
**High error rate**
|
|
→ Emergency rollback: Previous tag auto-deploys via GitHub Actions
|
|
|
|
## Best Practices
|
|
- Deploy during low-traffic hours (2-4am PST)
|
|
- Have 2 engineers available
|
|
- Monitor for 30 min post-deploy
|
|
- Update #engineering Slack with deploy notice
|
|
|
