The Five-Phase Deployment Lifecycle for the CCAR-P Exam

Support lifecycle phases (discovery, design, handoff, monitoring, iteration)

SUBy Solomon UdohReviewed by Solomon UdohAI-assisted · human-reviewed
In short
The deployment lifecycle runs five phases in order: discovery, design, handoff, monitoring, and iteration. Each phase produces the input the next phase depends on, so skipping or rushing a phase weakens everything downstream. Identifying which phase a decision belongs to is what lets an architect judge whether it is safe to move to the next phase.
