- Test edge cases and failures.
- Watch production metrics.
- Set alerts for errors.
Avoid these mistakes:

- Adding complex abstractions.
- Ignoring technical debt.
Focus on these principles:
- Keep it simple.
- Measure data before you optimize.
- Train your team on new tools.
- Automate manual steps.
Your plan for growth:
- This week: Audit your systems. Find one gap.
- This month: Fix the gap. Measure the result.
