Overview
In the current deployment process, Jenkins jobs trigger daily deployments across both Non-Production and Production environments. Due to the volume and variety of pipelines, deployments often occur during business hours, risking disruptions to critical services through restarts, database changes, and flow modifications. These interruptions can negatively impact user experience and potentially lead to revenue loss.
To address this, a custom task has been implemented to validate business hours before proceeding with a deployment. Integrated into the deployment pipeline, this task—"Validate Business Hours"—automatically blocks deployments during defined working hours. This solution enhances system stability, minimizes operational risk, and ensures smoother user experiences during peak business times.
Key Features
- Automated Deployment Control
- In large-scale enterprise environments where multiple deployments are triggered daily via automation tools like Jenkins, this component ensures that any deployment initiated through Pegs Deployment Manager is automatically blocked during defined business hours—preventing disruptions to critical operations.
- Seamless Integration & Flexibility
- Designed as a plug-and-play feature within Deployment Manager, it requires minimal setup and can be easily enabled or disabled based on operational needs, offering maximum flexibility with minimal overhead.
- Customizable Business Hours via Calendar
- Business hours are centrally managed through a calendar instance, allowing teams to define and adjust deployment windows as needed—ensuring alignment with regional schedules, holidays, or organizational policies.
