Write a migration rollback plan for the following change: System / service: [SERVICE OR DATABASE] Migration type: [SCHEMA, DATA, INFRA, CONFIG, FEATURE FLAG, ETC.] Environment sequence: [DEV → STAGING → PROD] Change summary: [WHAT IS CHANGING] Owner / on-call: [NAME OR ROLE] Maintenance window: [START–END OR N/A] Dependencies: [SERVICES, QUEUES, JOBS, CLIENTS] Success criteria for go-live: [CHECKS THAT CONFIRM SUCCESS] Known risks: [RISKS] Requirements: 1. Describe pre-migration backups, freeze windows, and verification steps. 2. Define go / no-go criteria before production execution. 3. Provide a step-by-step forward migration runbook and a matching rollback runbook. 4. Include time estimates, responsible roles, and communication points (Slack/status page). 5. Specify data integrity checks, monitoring signals, and error thresholds that trigger rollback. 6. Cover partial failure scenarios (migration succeeds, app fails; one replica lags; dual-write issues). Deliverables: 1. A clear rollback plan document with Forward Plan, Rollback Plan, and Validation sections. 2. A checklist that can be used during the live change. 3. A post-incident / post-migration notes template.
