What happens when a web application you depend on goes offline? It can be inconvenient, disappointing, and potentially cause serious problems for you.
But what if you find out that the web application wasn’t working by design because it was “down for maintenance”? That only makes the situation worse!
Your customers expect your application to be operational when they need it, not when you find it convenient. Maintenance windows impose your schedule on your customers and can negatively impact their experience.
And there is no reason for it! A well-designed, well-operated, modern web application never…ever…has to be down for scheduled maintenance.
In this episode, we’ll discuss why maintenance windows are a thing of the past.
