Phase 20 — Lifecycle, DevOps & Enterprise Operations

This phase turns Datasphere modeling into an operated enterprise platform. The focus is not simply moving objects between tenants; it is controlling change, validating releases, automating repeatable work, operating production safely, and making recovery and cost decisions explicit.

Architecture outcome​

By the end of this phase you can design:

DEV -> TEST -> PROD landscapes, transport routes, release gates, automated validation, operational ownership, recovery procedures, and capacity controls.

Learning sequence​

  1. Lifecycle mental model
  2. Transport and content lifecycle
  3. DEV, TEST and PROD topology
  4. Versioning and change management
  5. DevOps automation
  6. APIs and CI/CD
  7. Testing and reconciliation
  8. Release management
  9. Production SRE
  10. Recovery and business continuity
  11. Capacity and FinOps
  12. Enterprise operating model
  13. Troubleshooting labs
  14. Architect playbook

Architect principle​

Transporting an object is not the same as releasing a capability. A production release includes dependencies, security, connections, runtime configuration, data readiness, validation, observability and rollback planning.
