Environment Builds

Emergency Builds

Emergency fixes follow a similar SDLC process as that employed for regular changes. The reporter of the productioin issue must validate the applied fix in a near-to-production environment before the change is deploymed to PRD.  The greatest differences between the standard change process and an emergency fix lies in the the use of the environments, the flow of the change through those environments, amd the speed with which the entire change cycle is completed.  An Emergency Change Order (eCO) must be submitted to the CAB <link to CAB> for the purpose of notifying the help desk and creating a record of the unplanned change.

...

• once the fix is introduced in downstream environments, the work in-process that is not yet present in PRD may negatively impact the fix applied and additional work may be required
• the bug fix may negatively impact the work in process causing re-work to those efforts

Data Refreshes 

DBA SLA for Refreshes

• Standard schema refreshes scheduled through Control M  =  same day turnaround.  These refreshes are designed to use the PRD export created overnight every night. Therefore no DBA action is required.
• Schema refreshes that require manual intervention from the DBA team = 24 hour turnaround following receipt of RIP.

Example:

Data refreshes requiring data from export other than current day's.

Refreshes requiring retention of the attachments table (DR for example)

Requirements

*Backdoor access in all environments is now controlled by permissions in KFS. Only those granted this permission via management authorization have the ability to utilize backdoor access. All sensitive data is encrypted in all instances so only those with the proper credemtials or permission for backdoor access will have visibility to encrypted data.
