=================================================================================
COMPREHENSIVE LESSONS LEARNED (Across All 3 Attempts)
=================================================================================

1. DATABASE CAPACITY PLANNING (From Attempt 1):
   ⚠️ Calculate connections for BOTH environments during blue-green deployment
   ⚠️ Formula: (pods_blue + pods_green) × connections_per_pod + safety_margin
   ⚠️ Monitor connection utilization in real-time during deployment
   ⚠️ Set alerts at 70% threshold, rollback at 85%

2. DATABASE SCHEMA CHANGES (From Attempt 2):
   ⚠️ Analyze ALL new query patterns for index requirements
   ⚠️ Run EXPLAIN ANALYZE on new queries before production
   ⚠️ Create required indexes BEFORE deploying code
   ⚠️ Test with production-scale data volumes (not just staging)
   ⚠️ Monitor query execution times during deployment

3. DEPLOYMENT BEST PRACTICES (From Attempt 3):
   ⚠️ Comprehensive pre-deployment checklist is MANDATORY
   ⚠️ Gradual traffic shift with adequate monitoring windows
   ⚠️ Conservative approach: 10% → 25% → 50% → 75% → 100%
   ⚠️ Longer monitoring at critical stages (50%, 75%, 100%)
   ⚠️ Have automated rollback ready at every stage

4. MONITORING AND OBSERVABILITY:
   ⚠️ Connection pool utilization monitoring
   ⚠️ Query performance monitoring (slow query detection)
   ⚠️ Latency tracking (average, P95, P99)
   ⚠️ Error rate monitoring with automatic alerts
   ⚠️ Resource utilization (CPU, memory, network)

5. TESTING REQUIREMENTS:
   ⚠️ Staging must have production-like data volumes
   ⚠️ Load testing with both blue and green at capacity
   ⚠️ Query performance testing with EXPLAIN ANALYZE
   ⚠️ End-to-end smoke tests on green before traffic shift
   ⚠️ Rollback procedure testing in staging

=================================================================================

KEY SUCCESS FACTORS:
=================================================================================
1. ✓ Applied lessons from BOTH previous failures
2. ✓ Comprehensive pre-deployment validation
3. ✓ Conservative, gradual traffic shift approach
4. ✓ Adequate monitoring windows at each stage
