I joined a company last year that has a handful of legacy products, and we successfully moved one of them to a CD model a few months ago.

It's hilarious to sit back and watch every other team have the same monthly loop of big change -> lengthy test cycle -> "go-live" meeting -> fixes/big change -> more testing... etc. Loads of stress and finger-pointing.

Hardly ever hear a peep from the CD team. Sure, it's not all rainbows and lollipops. They do have urgent production issues time-to-time, but most are resolved by a rollback (or feature toggle flipped).

Congratulations. But it might be time to "make a peep" internally to other teams about "how we successfully moved to a CD model and what it gave us, and how you can do it too".

Mainly for your colleague's stress levels, and secondarily for the business's success.
