So this is a pretty simple questions with a lot of possible answers / opinions.
How would you go about implementing a once off data replication of Production, into Staging prior to a release?
Right now i’m looking at ensuring my staging environment is up to date prior to a deployment, so that I can:
- Ensure any prior testing data / changes are wiped
- Ensure Prisma Migrations are tested against a DB with real data, prior to release
- Provide an environment for staff to run their daily activities alongside production as an extra layer of testing
As always if this sounds like a horrendous idea, I’m all ears.
