Our new staging ddd-on
Why you need our staging add-on?
Without the staging add-on
- You only have one staging environment by default and are therefore limited in dev workflows
- You can only carry out deployments in one direction, e.g. from staging to live
With the staging add-on
- You get two staging environments with separate backups for full dev flexibility
- You can carry out deployments in all directions, from development to staging to live and back again
Why you need both
Why do I need two staging environments?
Example 1: Feature development vs. bug fixing
- Environment 1: Develop new features and roll them out live
- Environment 2: Fix bugs in a safe environment and go live
Example 2: Testing two different themes and showing them to customers
- Environment 1: Testing a minimalist theme for a customer project
- Environment 2: Testing a playful theme for a customer project
Flexible development at last
Your advantages at a glance
The second staging environment resolves conflicts, overrides and waiting times. Specifically:
Parallel and flexible working
With two staging environments, you can work on different tasks at the same time. While bugs are being fixed in one environment, development work continues undisturbed in the other – full flexibility.
Add fixes and features securely
Problems in the live system? Simply clone the live system into a staging environment, fix the bug there and deploy the solution back – this will keep the product stable and your users won’t experience any downtime.
Test major updates safely
Before major updates are rolled out, you can test them in an isolated environment. Compare, check and roll back in an emergency – without risk to ongoing projects or existing functions.
