Making the update live for our users is a very complex topic. An update or patch may exist for only one platform, or only one locale on one platform. We need to find a way to make the patch available for testers to verify it works as expected, and then to make the same patch available to our larger audience. The | Making the update live for our users is a very complex topic. An update or patch may exist for all of our users, only one platform for one version, or only one locale on one platform for one version. We need to find a way to make the patch available for testers to verify it works as expected, and then to make the same patch available to our larger audience. The configuration of the update must change '''as little as possible''' from the time it is signed off on by QA to the time the release time hits the go button. | ||
