Workflow: Production Failure & Blast Radius Audit

When to use

  • Before merging a PR
  • Before deploying to production
  • Any change touching APIs, persistence, queues, or external services

Goal

Identify failure modes that only show up under real production conditions: retries, partial failures, concurrency, and restarts.

This is a classic "Engineering vs. Product" communication gap. Your definitions are technically accurate, but Product Managers (PMs) don't care about how it works (e.g., "workers listening for events"); they care about business outcomes (Speed, Reliability, Consistency, and Cost/Maintenance).

To sell this, you need to pivot from "Here is the architecture" to "Here is how this solves our biggest user complaints."

Here is how to reframe your 7 patterns into a "Product Pitch," followed by a strategy to explain the service consolidation (46 β†’ 15).

Instead of listing technical implementation details, use a "Problem/Solution" format.
