  • Curriculum path: content/curriculum/production/semester-10-capstone/module-04-operational-readiness-security-review/concepts/cluster-07-evidence-extension/23-readiness-decision.md
  • App: production
  • Semester: semester-10-capstone
  • Module: module-04-operational-readiness-security-review
  • Unit kind: concept
  • Curation level: module_curated

Learning objectives​

  • Explain Make the readiness decision survive a game day as proving the system is safe to run, inspect, and recover rather than as a final checklist before submission.
  • Use Make the readiness decision survive a game day to reason about observability, security exposure, failure handling, and whether the capstone is truly ready for real use.
  • Use building-secure-and-reliable-systems to connect the learner page to runbooks, risk review, telemetry, and defensive engineering practice.

Prerequisites​

  • Comfort with deployed software, delivery automation, and the idea that production readiness requires security, telemetry, and recovery planning.

External enrichment​

  • Google SRE Book: Monitoring Distributed Systems (official_docs_companion) - Useful when the learner needs a concrete model for telemetry, alerting, and operational signal quality.
  • OWASP ASVS (official_docs_companion) - Provides a structured application-security review baseline that fits capstone readiness checks better than ad hoc intuition.
