What is inside

  • Separation of dev, staging, and release repositories
  • Signed attestations before promotion
  • Budget alerts tied to storage growth, not revenue metrics
  • Drift detection on IAM bindings for readers
  • Optional sync to on-prem mirrors for air-gapped labs
  • Retention windows that match cohort sprint cadence
  • Hands-on worksheet for rollback drills

Outcomes you can show

  • You can diagram your own promotion graph
  • You can explain why immutability tags beat floating latest
  • You can run the supplied cleanup dry-run safely
