Developing, testing, and deploying and maintaining successful sites requires a lot of moving pieces to all smoothly work together. I will present a checklist to ensure your deployments work as planned, the first time.

The high level checklist will include:

Testing Automation
Server Configuration
Application Configuration and Tuning
Cache strategy
Scaling
Redundancy
High Availability
Deployment strategy

Attendees will leave with insight garnered from seeing these principles in action on some of the world's largest Drupal sites, a new checklist to use on their sites, and the knowledge to customize their checklist for their needs.
